Which of these is a distinct set of concepts?

I did a short course on The Philosophy of Science whilst at Cardiff University in the 1980s, and it was probably amongst the most valuable of the courses I studied. Just how rare it is for a paradigm shift to occur is seldom understood. It used to irritate me to hear the phrase being bandied about, particularly in business meetings. Sadly the Philosophy Department disappeared completely as a result of budget cuts and a misunderstanding of the utility of philosophy amongst students and prospective employers.

ColdMonkey, that'll come back to bite them.. philosophy in my experience is extremely important as it's another area where the younger generation learns about what works & what doesn't..

FreshMango, well put! simplicity is a useful aid for those trying to learn.

ZyggyStardust, and used by "managers" who don't even know what the words actually mean. So glad to be retired
