Fuller argues that Kuhn's influence has not only shaped the field of science but has also led to significant misinterpretations of both thinkers' contributions. He raises critical questions about the role of science in society: Can it truly serve as an independent and progressive force, or is it inevitably tied to the military-industrial complex?
