ERROL MORRIS’ ASHTRAY

“Truth is about the relationship between language and the world: a correspondence idea of truth.” — Errol Morris

THE ASHTRAY is Morris’ denunciation of physicist-philosopher Thomas Kuhn and the ideas Kuhn propagated in his 1962 classic The Structure of Scientific Revolutions.
