3 Steps for Changing a Paradigm

About this episode

How to replace one theory with another. You must accomplish three things:


1) Explain where the dominant theory is wrong.
2) Explain why your theory solves the problem in #1, while preserving its explanatory power.
3) Explain why the incorrect theory still had predictive power.

Do those three, and you've made a compelling case for a paradigm shift.
