The Structure of Scientific Revolution is available for download on line. (50th Anniversary Edition as a pdf.) The introduction by Ian Hacking alone is worth a read.
Ian Hacking’s essay mentions this entry: Thomas Kuhn (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy)
I’m still working on my Stickhenge project and just very recently started reading "The Copernican Revolution" by Kuhn which is very good, cosmology starting with the Egyptian sun god Ra through to Newton.
Beyond that; a quick google search turns up *“Explaining Scientific Consensus: The Case of Mendelian Genetics” which seems more about the actual nitty gritty than Kuhn’s book.
Developing a unique approach to the formation of scientific consensus, Kim focuses on the so called “middle-level” scientists and their essential role in criticizing and controlling the more single-minded and prominent elite scientists. Kim contends that it is through these scientists, who are often more accessible in university settings, that new discoveries and ideas will be generally accepted in the scientific community, displayed in textbooks, and eventually, accepted into the core knowledge.
Haven’t read it but from the reviews evidently it’s used as a textbook.
