Book Overview
This volume presents two seminal works by Francis Bacon: "Advancement of Learning" and "Novum Organum." Bacon, a pivotal figure in the scientific revolution, articulates his vision for the reform of scientific thought and the expansion of human knowledge. "Advancement of Learning" surveys the existing state of knowledge and identifies areas for improvement, advocating for a systematic approach to learning and research.
"Novum Organum," meaning "New Instrument," outlines Bacon's inductive method, which emphasizes observation, experimentation, and the careful collection of empirical data. This approach challenged the prevailing reliance on Aristotelian logic and paved the way for modern scientific inquiry. With a special introduction by James Edward Creighton, this edition offers readers a comprehensive understanding of Bacon's enduring contributions to philosophy and science.
