Abstract

Bacon’s implicit program continued to gradually unfold in the eighteenth century, fostering new ways of appreciating natural phenomena, human behavior, social interactions, and the roles of religion, faith and God. As reason expanded its reach and began to inform a broader range of human actions, Bacon’s vision of dominating nature through understanding became sharper and more approachable. It influenced the work of intellectuals and inventors who advanced modern science, improved techniques, changed production and transformed society.
