Review
Kuhn's tale resonates with modern discoveries about planetary systems other than our own. The book opens our minds to how differently the history of astronomy could have played out had we lived on a world with twin suns, on a moon around a Jupiter-like planet or in a system packed with gas giants looping inside our planet's orbit. As we learn about other worlds, Kuhn's analysis reminds us that we are poised for our own scientific revolution. --Caleb Scharf, Nature, Vol. 487, 5th July 2012
