Description: | Francis Bacon's major contribution to philosophy was his application of induction, the approach used by modern science, rather than the thinking methods of medieval scholasticism. Up to and during Bacon's time there existed philosophies rooted not so much in reason but in pure faith ... Bacon was violently opposed to speculative philosophies and the syllogistic quibbling of the Schoolman ..., Bacon argued that the only knowledge of importance to man was empirically rooted in the natural world. |
