New event (1 janv. 384 av. J.-C. – 1 janv. 322 av. J.-C.)

Description:

Aristotle (384 - 322 BCE), by contrast, believed that Plato had everything the wrong way around, and that knowledge could only be gained by comparing it with what was already known and perceived.
-He believed that inductive reasoning was required to establish some basic premises before scientific demonstrations.
-Between the two schools of thought, the idea of deductive reasoning emerged, which has remained a cornerstone of the scientific
method.
-This idea remained a common theme throughout the history of the philosophy of science
-Aristotle used the term 'first principles' to illustrate his belief that gathering knowledge was a process of gaining experience, building upon what is already known to be true.
-Even in the modern world, each scientific field has its own unique first principles upon which research is built, postulates that cannot be
deduced and act as a foundation. Aristotle still used deduction for building up his view of the universe
