The epistemological concept of plurality of perspectives emphasizes that there can be different ways of looking at an object. Just as it is the case with sensual perception, these can appear very differently while still being aspects of the same thing. The german integrative physician Peter Matthiessen describes for a medical pluralism the justification of a simultaneous existence of different perspectives in the sense of different, but basically equal and mutually complementary scientific approaches, in a certain contrast to a paradigm pluralism, in which in the confrontation of different paradigms a respective better one prevails against inferior ones.[1]

Different aesthetic manifestations of a work of art (Henry Moore, Locking Piece, Duisburg) depending on the direction of view (according to Matthiessen[2])
