>>>>>> the sheer scope and consequences of his writings which inspire the site. His
>>>>>> ideas, arguments and experiments have impacted on philosophy, theology,
>>>>>> history, literature, rhetoric, mechanics, dynamics, and later more generally
>>>>>> in what would become science and the philosophy of science. Some have called
>>>>>> him the "father of modern science", but the influence of his thought has
>>>>>> been felt across the intellectual landscape and continues to this day.
