Throughout history, some books have changed the world. They have transformed the
way we see ourselves - and each other. They have inspired debate, dissent, war
and revolution. They have enlightened, outraged, provoked and comforted. They
have enriched lives - and destroyed them. Now Penguin brings you the works of
the great thinkers, pioneers, radicals and visionaries whose ideas shook
civilization and helped make us who we are.
Francis Bacon's landmark writings on subjects ranging from anger and ambition,
marriage and money to envy and empire established him as the founding father of
modern scientific thinking, with his rejection of superstition and his emphasis
on proof and experiment, rational enquiry and reasoned argument.
