Science, common sense and scientific revolutions: resonances and paradoxes

The objective of this paper is to revise some aspects of the constitution of scientific knowledge as, for example, its definition, its relation in regard to philosophy, religion and myth. Another objective is to describe some characteristics of events that have been developed and are still being developed from new concepts about science itself, such as, (new) common sense and some (Thomas Kuhn and Karl Popper) discussion on the scientific revolutions. It points out that scientific genesis is related to daily manifestations, modifying itself and distinguishing itself in its multiple interpretations.
