Abstract

Cassandra Pinnick and George Gale (Journal for General Phisophy of Science31, 109–125) examined the post-Lakatos period of historical cum philosophical case studies and concluded that a new methodology is required. Lakatos' proposed ‘history2’ (the theory- and value-laden reconstruction of history1, the set of historical events) was criticised. Recently a group of scholars have been pursuing a methodology which could be described as history3, a history1 account of the interaction between the significant scientific papers published during the time period in question and their scientific audience.
