Professor of History and Philosophy of Science at the University of Athens
Theodore Arabatzis (born 1965) is a Greek scholar on history and philosophy of science, President of the European Society for the History of Science (2020-2022).
In the early 1960s, Kuhn and Feyerabend pointed out that the meaning of scientific terms changes over time.
Science started having significant applications more than a hundred and fifty years ago (e.g., in the rising chemical and electrical industries) and those applications were based on theories that have been abandoned (e.g., on an ether-based electromagnetic theory).
