John Stuart Mill (1 ene 1806 año – 1 ene 1873 año)

Descripción:

The British philosopher, John Stuart Mill (1806 - 1873), vehemently disagreed with Whewell, believing that science could not use induction
to arrive at absolute truth. He stipulated that however many times a hypothesis was found to be proved by the empirical evidence, this could not guarantee that this would always be the case and so science could only ever be possibility, as believed by Herschel and Newton.
-The other great contribution to the history of the philosophy of science made by Mill is the Laws of Agreement, also known as Mill's
Methods, used to determine a causal effect in any relationship, by a process of elimination.
