Very close to language-games is a concept that is important but did not attract much attention, the one of paradigm. In this paper this concept is analyzed together with notions such as context, use, reference, language-games, reality, science, truth, method, propositions, among others by means of which a new view of epistemology emerges. As for Kuhn, paradigm is his most known notion and his biggest contribution to innovate the history of science. I contrast these two conceptions and conclude that they have different uses, and that some difficulties that emerge from Kuhn＇s concept of paradigm would be dissolved if we take into consideration Witt^enstein＇s aooroaches of language and the uses it has in our life forms.展开更多

Along with the wave of information technology revolution, life sciences and biotechnology are showing the developing prospect of unlimited possibilities. More and more people have foreseen the arrival of a new era of life sciences, which has important impact on science and technology development, social progress and economic growth.展开更多
