            Francis Bacon strove to create a new outline for the sciences with a focus on empirical scientific methods - methods that depended on tangible proof - while developing the basis applied science. Unlike the doctrines of Aristotle and Plato, Bacons's approach placed an emphasis on experimentation and interaction, culminating in " Then proceed to the " Table of presence ", which is a list of circumtances under which the event being studied. " The table of Absence in Proximity" is then used to identify negative occurences. Next, "The table of Comparison" allows the observer to compare and contrast the degreeof the event. After completing these steps the scientific observer is required to perform a short survey that will help to identify the possible cause of the occurrence. Unlike the typical hypothesis, Bacon did not emphasize the importance of testing one's theory. Instead, He believed that observation and analysis were sufficient in producing a greater comprehension that creative minds could use to reach still further understanding.

          Francis Bacon new scientific method or Baconian method is contrast to deductive reasoning, which had dominated science since the days of Aristotle, Bacon intorduce inductive reasoning which means resting and refining hypothesis by observing, measuring and experimenting. The conclusion does not follow logically from the statements. Inductive reasoning has its place in the Scientific Method, scientists use it to form hypothesis and theories. Deductive reasoning, allows them to apply the theories to specific situations.
