True Suggestions for the Interpretation of Nature and the Reign of Man
Francis Bacon · translated by Andrew McIntosh
Written before Newton, at the dawn of the Scientific Revolution,
Bacon's argument was that nature is not random — that its rules
can be worked out by anyone willing to concentrate hard enough. Then
he laid out a method for doing it. This is that book in plain modern
English, four centuries on.
“A most remarkable feat of insight and act of rational faith.”
C. D. Broad, on Bacon's method
