Science has developed greatly from ancient to modern times. In ancient times, myths and superstitions dominated beliefs about the natural world. During the Scientific Revolution from 1500-1700, early scientists like Galileo, Kepler, and Newton established the foundations of modern science through experimentation and mathematical analysis of the natural world. Their work helped shift views away from ancient authorities like Aristotle and towards evidence-based understanding. Today, science continues to advance our knowledge through rigorous testing of hypotheses and theories against facts gathered through observation and experimentation.
Ferdinand Marcos was the president of the Philippines from 1965 to 1986. During his presidency, he implemented reforms in many areas including land, education, labor, and the economy. He also oversaw infrastructure projects and economic growth. However, he declared martial law in 1972 and was later ousted in 1986 following allegations of corruption and human rights abuses.
Andres Bonifacio was a Filipino nationalist and revolutionary who founded the secret society Katipunan which sought independence from Spanish colonial rule. He helped spark the Philippine Revolution by calling thousands of Katipunan members to start the revolt in August 1896. As President and commander-in-chief of the revolutionary army, Bonifacio issued a proclamation calling for coordinated attacks on Manila. However, he later had a falling out with Emilio Aguinaldo and was arrested and executed in 1897, cementing his place as one of the foremost heroes in the struggle for Philippine independence.

The atomic theory has evolved over time based on new discoveries. Early philosophers proposed that all matter is made of indivisible particles called atoms. In the early 1800s, scientists proposed that atoms of different elements have distinct properties and combine in fixed ratios. At the turn of the 20th century, experiments revealed internal structures of atoms including electrons, protons, and nuclei. Later work determined the composition and arrangement of these subatomic particles, leading to modern atomic theory that atoms are made of protons, neutrons, and electrons with electrons orbiting the nucleus.

The atomic theory has evolved over time based on new discoveries. Early philosophers proposed that all matter is made of indivisible particles called atoms. In the early 1800s, scientists proposed that atoms of different elements have distinct properties and combine in fixed ratios. At the turn of the 20th century, experiments revealed internal structures of atoms including electrons, protons, and nuclei. Later work determined the composition and arrangement of these subatomic particles, leading to modern atomic theory that atoms are made of protons, neutrons, and electrons with electrons orbiting the nucleus.
Democritus and Leucippus were ancient Greek philosophers who first proposed the idea of atoms in the 5th century BC. They believed that all matter was made of extremely small, indivisible particles called atoms. This was the first atomic theory, though it was not supported by experiments. Later, in the late 1700s, John Dalton revived the atomic theory with experimental evidence and proposed three main laws of atomic theory: the law of conservation of mass, the law of definite proportions, and the law of multiple proportions. Dalton proposed that atoms of different elements have different masses and that compounds are formed by atoms of different elements combining.
Physical science 4.1 : Development of Atomic TheoryChris Foltz
Â
Democritus was one of the first to propose the idea of atoms in 440 BCE, suggesting that matter is made up of tiny indivisible particles called atoms. In the early 1900s, experiments led scientists to develop more accurate models of the atom. Rutherford discovered the nucleus in 1909 by firing positively charged particles at a gold foil and observing some particles deflecting, indicating a small, dense nucleus. Bohr then proposed in 1913 that electrons orbit the nucleus in distinct energy levels. The modern atomic theory describes the regions where electrons are likely to be found as electron clouds.
Atomic theory describes matter as composed of atoms, the basic units that constitute chemical elements. Democritus first proposed the idea of indivisible atoms in ancient Greece. In the early 1900s, J.J. Thomson discovered the electron and proposed a "plum pudding" model of the atom. Ernest Rutherford discovered the nucleus through alpha particle scattering experiments, leading to the planetary model of electrons orbiting the nucleus. Niels Bohr later adjusted this model to account for electron stability.
The document discusses nucleosynthesis and the origins and life cycles of stars. It explains that elements were first formed in the early universe after the Big Bang as it cooled. Stars then formed from clouds of gas and dust, and nuclear fusion in their cores generated heavier elements. Stars have different classifications based on attributes like temperature, color, size and brightness. They are born, evolve through stages like red giants, and die, sometimes in supernovas. Their deaths leave behind remnants like neutron stars or black holes.
This document provides an overview of the history of science from ancient Egyptian times through the 1600s AD. It discusses key early scientists and their contributions, including Thales, Democritus, and Aristotle in ancient Greece; Ptolemy's geocentric model of the universe; the stagnation of scientific progress during the Dark Ages; and the proposals of Copernicus and Galileo that challenged the Ptolemaic system. A turning point was the scientific revolution in the 1500-1600s led by figures like Copernicus, Galileo, and Newton, who developed the laws of motion and gravity and helped establish the scientific method.
The document summarizes the Scientific Revolution, which established modern science. It discusses key figures like Copernicus, Galileo, Kepler, and Newton, and how they challenged Aristotle's geocentric model and developed the heliocentric model and laws of motion and gravity. The Scientific Revolution established empiricism and the scientific method. It led to advances in fields like astronomy, physics, chemistry, anatomy, and more. The Royal Societies also supported the exchange of new scientific ideas. Overall, the Scientific Revolution transformed how people viewed the world and pursued knowledge.
The scientific revolution emerged in the early modern period and transformed views of society and nature. Before 1500, Aristotle and the Bible were the sole authorities, and the geocentric model of a Earth-centered universe was dominant. However, three scientists challenged these traditional views: Copernicus proposed in the mid-1500s that the Earth revolved around the sun, Galileo used a telescope in the early 1600s to observe evidence supporting this, and Newton later established the law of universal gravitation in the late 1600s.
The document discusses intellectual revolutions that defined society, focusing on scientific revolutions from the 14th to 18th centuries in Europe. It describes how early philosophers developed ideas about the natural world, and how the scientific revolution challenged existing religious views and established the scientific method. The revolution transformed society by establishing science as a discipline and field of inquiry, and shifting views about the relationship between humanity, nature, and the cosmos from geocentric to heliocentric models. Key figures like Copernicus, Galileo, and Kepler played important roles in this intellectual transformation through their scientific theories and observations.
During the Scientific Revolution of the 1500s, scientists like Copernicus, Kepler, Galileo, and Newton made important contributions that changed views of the universe and established the scientific method. Copernicus proposed that the Earth revolved around the Sun, contradicting the Church's teachings. Kepler proved Copernicus right and also discovered elliptical orbits. Galileo improved the telescope and made observations supporting Copernicus, but got in trouble with the Church. Newton discovered gravity and laws of motion and established classical mechanics. Their work fundamentally transformed science and thinking.
The document discusses the history of human anatomy from ancient times to the Renaissance. It describes how early Greek thinkers like Alcmaeon, Empedocles, and Hippocrates began the intellectual development of anatomy by studying animal anatomy and making inferences about the human body. Aristotle made important contributions through his work in comparative anatomy and embryology. However, the greatest advances were made by Herophilus and Galen during the 3rd century BC in Alexandria, where they were the first to conduct formal human dissections and describe anatomical structures. The Renaissance brought a revival of anatomical study building on the work of these early pioneers.
The Enlightenment was an intellectual movement that emphasized reason, science, and individualism rather than tradition. During this era, scientists like Copernicus, Galileo, Kepler, Newton, and Boyle made discoveries that challenged traditional beliefs and established the scientific method. Philosophers such as Locke, Montesquieu, Voltaire, and others promoted ideals of liberty, constitutional government, freedom of religion, and separation of powers. Their works helped spread ideals of the Enlightenment and encouraged using reason to improve society and advance human knowledge.
The document provides an overview of the history of science from ancient Greece to modern times. It discusses key figures like Aristotle, Copernicus, Galileo, Descartes, Newton, and developments like the Scientific Revolution. The Scientific Revolution marked a major paradigm shift from the Aristotelian tradition to modern science, transforming views of nature. It established new standards of evidence based on experimentation and mathematics. While debated whether it was a single revolution or gradual evolution, it undeniably changed approaches to natural philosophy and understanding of the natural world.
Intellectual revolutions that defined society_S&T in Building the Nation_Wee...LuisSalenga1
Â
Copernican, Darwinian and Freudian intellectual revolutions transformed society's views of nature. Copernicus published his heliocentric model contradicting the geocentric Ptolemaic model, establishing the birth of modern astronomy. Darwin introduced the theory of evolution by natural selection, making populations evolve over generations. Freud developed the theory of psychoanalysis, establishing psychology as a science and explaining human behavior through unconscious conflicts.
1. The document discusses several intellectual revolutions that defined society, including the Scientific Revolution, Copernican Revolution, and Darwinian Revolution.
2. During the Scientific Revolution, thinkers began challenging Aristotle's theories and relying more on experimentation, leading to new theories of science. Copernicus proposed that the sun, not Earth, was the center of the solar system.
3. Galileo and Kepler further developed the heliocentric model through observations with telescopes. Newton later formulated laws of motion and gravity, cementing the new scientific worldview.
4. Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection completed the revolution in biology by providing a natural explanation for the diversity of life without invoking supernatural causes.
The document discusses key figures of the Scientific Revolution from the 15th to 17th centuries who helped transition Europe from doctrinal passivity to an emphasis on scientific inquiry and experimentation. It describes the contributions of Copernicus, Kepler, Galileo, Descartes, Newton, Bacon, Harvey, and Einstein. Their works challenged prior assumptions, established new methodologies like the scientific method, and laid the foundations for modern science in fields like astronomy, physics, mathematics, and medicine.
1) The Scientific Revolution developed during the Renaissance as scientists began questioning traditional beliefs about the natural world that were based on Aristotle and the Bible.
2) Scientists like Copernicus, Galileo, and Newton challenged the geocentric model of the universe and developed the heliocentric model through observations and experiments.
3) Their work established the foundations of the modern scientific method of using experimentation and evidence rather than past authorities to understand the natural world.
The Scientific Revolution between the 16th and 17th centuries profoundly changed Europeans' worldview. Key figures like Copernicus, Galileo, Kepler, and Newton applied mathematics and experimentation to develop scientific theories like heliocentrism and the laws of motion and gravity, undermining the geocentric Aristotelian view. This emphasized empirical evidence over religious authority and established individual intellect over collective wisdom, laying the foundations for the Enlightenment.

This document examines the historical relationship between religion, philosophy, and science. It finds that throughout much of history:
1) Religion and philosophy often guided and supported the development of science by providing worldviews and direction for scientific inquiry.
2) Conflicts between religion/philosophy and science were usually not about the existence of God, but rather struggles between old and new views of nature.
3) Science has progressed according to God's providence, with mathematical and scientific discoveries often later being applied in unexpected ways. Religion and philosophy have played an important role in cultural progress despite occasional conflicts with science.

This document examines the historical relationship between religion, philosophy, and science. It finds that throughout much of history:
1) Religion, philosophy, and science were closely intertwined, with each guiding and supporting the development of the others.
2) However, at some points certain religious or philosophical views hindered scientific progress by providing incorrect guidance.
3) Major scientific advances like those of Copernicus and Newton were not aimed at rejecting God, but rather understanding God's creation more accurately. Overall the document finds that religion and philosophy have generally played a positive role in guiding scientific development when providing the right direction, rather than being in conflict.
This document outlines the topics and schedule for a course on Science, Technology and Society. It is divided into three main sections: 1) Historical influences of social factors on science and technology, 2) Intellectual revolutions and their impact on society, and 3) Specific contemporary issues in science and technology. Some of the individual topics that will be covered include the information age, biodiversity, nanotechnology, and gene therapy. The course will examine the relationships between science, technology, and humanity.
This document is Michael Mangino's honors thesis from Northern Illinois University submitted in 2007 titled "The Anatomy of Anatomy Education". It discusses the history of anatomy education from ancient Greek philosophers like Plato and Aristotle to modern times. Key figures discussed include Hippocrates, Galen, Andreas Vesalius, and William Harvey and their important contributions to the field through observations, dissections, and experiments that advanced the understanding of human anatomy. The thesis also examines how knowledge was considered and taught during this evolution using Aristotelian philosophical techniques of commentary and examining causes.
The Scientific Revolution began in the late 1300s-1500s with the Renaissance and Reformation which led to the rediscovery of ancient learning and challenges to traditional thinking. In the late 1400s-1600s, the Age of Exploration resulted in the discovery of new lands, people, flora, and fauna. During the mid-1500s-1700s, the Scientific Revolution brought new explanations of nature. Key figures like Copernicus, Kepler, Galileo, Descartes, Newton, and Boyle helped establish the heliocentric model of the solar system and develop the scientific method through observations, experimentation, and mathematics.
The Scientific Revolution from 1550-1800 CE marked a period of immense change in scientific thought and discovery. Figures like Copernicus, Kepler, Galileo and Newton developed theories that displaced Earth from the center of the universe and established gravity and laws of motion, overturning Aristotelian conceptions. Advances in fields like astronomy, physics, chemistry and medicine established new empirical and mathematical approaches to understanding the natural world through observation and experimentation. The scientific method developed during this time established an evidence-based framework for scientific inquiry that remains influential.

Daedalus, a skilled craftsman, built an inescapable labyrinth for King Minos but later fell out of favor and was imprisoned. To escape from Crete with his son Icarus, Daedalus fashioned wings for himself and Icarus using feathers and wax. He warned Icarus not to fly too low or high, but the excited boy disobeyed and flew too close to the sun, melting his wings. Icarus fell into the sea and drowned, while a grief-stricken Daedalus completed the journey alone.

2. Imagine a world without science?
• Imagine a world without system.
• Imagine a world without collection of
knowledge
• Imagine a man who knows nothing….
9. The Scientific Revolution
• The period roughly between 1500 and
1700 during which the foundations of
modern science were laid down in
Western Europe. Before this
period, nothing like science in the modern
sense.
10. The Myth Vs. Science
MYTHS
• The world is flat.
• The center of the universe is Earth.
• Dragons are monsters.
• The race of man came from Eve and
Adam.
11. The Myth Vs. Science
FACTS
• The world is round.
• The center of the Solar System is the Sun.
• Dragons are reptiles and they are not big.
• Man came from apes.
12. Superstitious Vs. Facts
Superstitious Belief
Traditional belief, rituals, and customs that
is being followed or applied without any
scientific bases.
Facts
Any information gathered from scientific
experimentation, result of any observed
phenomenon or event.
13. The Scientific Revolution
• Aristotle Aristotle, one of the
greatest ancient Greek
philosophers, was the first
to provide a systematic
exposition of
biology, psychology, physi
cs, and literary theory.
Aristotle emphasized the
importance of reason and
logic.
14. The Scientific Revolution
• Aristotle
“mixed sciences”
It tried to combine the
principles of one science,
geometry, with those of
another, physics, in order to
explain the behavior of
heavenly bodies or rays of
light. But the results,
according to Aristotle, could
not properly explain anything.
15. The Scientific Revolution
• Galen Galen, a Greek physician who
lived during the 2nd century
AD, believed that mental
disorders resulted from an
imbalance of the four bodily
humors: black bile, yellow
bile, blood, and phlegm. His
studies dominated European
medical theory and practice
for 1400
16. The Scientific Revolution
• Galen The arts and medical faculties
tended to follow suit, with the
result that study focused not
on the natural world itself, nor
on the techniques of practical
healing, but instead on the
writings of Aristotle and
Galen, who was the equivalent
medical authority in ancient
times. Concentration on the
study of texts meant that there
was little or no practical study
or experimentation within the
university curricula.
17. The Scientific Revolution
• Pedanius Pedanius Dioscorides (40?-90?
AD), Greek physician, born in
Dioscorides Anazarbus, in Cilicia (now in
Turkey). He served in the Roman
armies of Nero and studied
plants for their medicinal
properties. He wrote De Materia
Medica (On Medical Matters), the
first authoritative and
superstition-free text on botany
and pharmacology.
He more localized and uses practical knowledge to lay
experts in herbal lore outside the university system.
18. The Scientific Revolution
• The alchemy Alchemy, ancient art
practiced especially in the
Middle Ages, devoted chiefly
to discovering a substance
that would transmute the
more common metals into
gold or silver and to finding a
means of indefinitely
prolonging human life.
Although its purposes and
techniques were dubious and
often illusory, alchemy was in
many ways the predecessor
of modern
science, especially the
science of chemistry.
19. The Scientific Revolution
• The stand of Roman Catholic Church
“ queen of the
sciences,”
The Church considered
Aristotelian natural
philosophy to provide
support to religious
doctrines, but other
naturalist pursuits were
considered to be
subversive.
20. Development of Experimentation
• The Renaissance was
the period when the
experimental
method, still
characteristic of
science today, began
to be developed and
came increasingly to
be used for
understanding all
aspects of the
21. Development of Experimentation
William Gilbert (1544-
1603), English physicist
and physician, known
primarily for his original
experiments in the nature
of electricity and
magnetism.
22. Development of Experimentation
Andreas Vesalius Belgian anatomist and
physician Andreas
Vesalius helped
establish the
foundations of modern
anatomy in the 16th
century by dissecting
human cadavers and
publishing his results.

25. Religious Opposition
Religious opposition to magic had less force after the discovery of
various writings allegedly written by Hermes
Trismegistus, Zoroaster, Orpheus, and other mythical or legendary
characters.
26. New Focus On Experimentation
And Observation
The invention of new observational instruments…
Italian physicist and
astronomer

maintained that the
earth revolved around
the sun, disputing the
belief held by the
Roman Catholic
church that the earth
was the center of the
universe.

28. Mathematization of Nature
The scientific revolution has also been
characterized as the period of the
“mathematization of the world
Quantitative information and mathematical analysis of the physical
world began to be seen to offer more reliable knowledge than the
picture”
more qualitative and philosophical analyses that had been typical of
traditional natural philosophy. The mathematical sciences had their
own long history, but thanks to Aristotle's strictures they had always
been kept separate from natural philosophy and regarded as inferior
to it.
30. Mathematization of Nature

increased
scientists’
understanding of
planetary motion;

Isaac Newton
. Most
notably, Newton

mathematics
called calculus
32. Practical Uses of Scientific
Knowledge
• Experimentalism and mathematization
were both stimulated by an increasing
concern that knowledge of nature should
be practically useful, bringing distinct
benefits to its practitioners, its patrons, or
even to people in general. Apart from
supporting dubious medical ideas, the only
use to which natural philosophy had been
put throughout the Middle Ages was for
bolstering religion.

Introduction:The period roughly between 1500 and 1700 during which the foundations of modern science were laid down in Western Europe. Before this period, nothing like science in the modern sense.
Explain the concept of the following myth.
Explain the following modern concept.1.The world is spherical in shape.2. It was discovered by Copernicus that the center of the Solar System is the Sun. It was supported by the studies of Galileo Galilee3. A Living dragon is known as the Comodo dragon. It is a reptile that emit gases that can produce fire.4. According the theory of evolution of Charles Darwin ---- Man came from apes. Like any organism in the planet we are also a product of evolution.The teacher is encourage to site more significant scientific theories.
*This fragmentation of studies concerned with the workings of nature was reinforced throughout the Middle Ages by the Roman Catholic Church. After some initial problems with non-Christian aspects of Aristotelian teaching, the Church embraced such teaching as a handmaiden to the so-called “queen of the sciences,” theology. The Church considered Aristotelian natural philosophy to provide support to religious doctrines, but other naturalist pursuits were considered to be subversive. The Church tended to be suspicious of natural magic, for example, even though natural magic was simply concerned with the demonstrable properties of material bodies (such as the ability of magnets to attract iron or the ability of certain plants or their extracts to cure diseases). One way or another, therefore, the powerful combination of Aristotelian teachings with Church doctrines tended to exclude direct study and analysis of nature.
* During the Renaissance, Belgian physician Andreas Vesalius experimented with the dissection of human cadavers in order to learn more about human anatomy. The spirit of curiosity and experimentation that characterized the Renaissance created a fertile climate for the development of science. Advances were made in many fields including navigation, astronomy, mathematics and medicine. *Experimentation was a major aspect of the natural magic tradition and was ready for appropriation by Renaissance natural philosophers who recognized its potential. The experimental methodology used in magic became more acceptable to Renaissance scholars thanks to the rediscovery of ancient magical writings
Religious opposition to magic had less force after the discovery of various writings allegedly written by Hermes Trismegistus, Zoroaster, Orpheus, and other mythical or legendary characters. We now know these texts were written in the early centuries of the Christian Era and deliberately attributed to such legendary authors, but Renaissance scholars believed they were genuinely ancient documents. This gave the texts great authority and led to increased respect for magical approaches. *Hermes Trismegistus, Greek name for the ancient Egyptian god Thoth. Hermes Trismegistus means “the Thrice Great Hermes.” He is the supposed author of the Hermetica. This body of writings expounds the Hellenistic mystical philosophy of Hermetism, in which the sun is regarded as the visible manifestation of God.*Zoroaster,This detail from a 2nd-century wall painting at Dura Europus in Syria depicts Zoroaster, a religious poet regarded as the prophet and founder of Zoroastrianism. The mural was painted more than 1,000 years after Zoroaster lived.*Orpheus The legendary ancient Greek hero Orpheus was a musician whose singing and playing of the lyre was so beautiful that not only humans but also animals and even inanimate objects were moved by the power of his music. He is shown playing his lyre for an audience of animals in this 3rd-century mosaic from Tarsus in Turkey.
Another important aspect of the new focus on experimentation and observation (empiricism) was the invention of new observational instruments. The Italian astronomer Galileo, for example, used the telescope—first developed for commercial purposes—to make astonishing astronomical observations. His exciting success stimulated the development of a whole range of instruments for studying nature, such as the microscope, thermometer, and barometer.*Italian physicist and astronomer Galileo maintained that the earth revolved around the sun, disputing the belief held by the Roman Catholic church that the earth was the center of the universe. He refused to obey orders from Rome to cease discussions of his theories and was sentenced to life imprisonment. It was not until 1984 that a papal commission acknowledged that the church was wrong.
*Galileo’s Telescopes Italian astronomer Galileo made major discoveries about celestial objects in our solar system with newly-invented telescopes in the early 17th century. His discoveries helped turn cosmology into a science based on observation, rather than philosophy. These telescopes are now in the MuseodellaScienza in Florence, Italy.
The scientific revolution has also been characterized as the period of the “mathematization of the world picture.” Quantitative information and mathematical analysis of the physical world began to be seen to offer more reliable knowledge than the more qualitative and philosophical analyses that had been typical of traditional natural philosophy. The mathematical sciences had their own long history, but thanks to Aristotle's strictures they had always been kept separate from natural philosophy and regarded as inferior to it. Aristotle's authority weakened throughout the Renaissance, however, as the rediscovery of the writings of other ancient Greek philosophers with views widely divergent from those of Aristotle, such as Plato, Epicurus, and the Stoics, made it plain that he was by no means the only ancient.As skepticism became credible in light of the remarkable exposures of the failings of traditional intellectual positions, mathematics became an increasingly powerful force. Mathematicians claimed to deal with absolute knowledge, capable of undeniable proof and so immune from skeptical criticisms. The full story of the rise in status of mathematics is complex and crowded. Notable contributors included Polish astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus, who claimed that, for no other reason than that the mathematics indicated it, Earth must revolve around the Sun, and German astronomer Johannes Kepler, who reinforced this idea with astronomical measurements vastly more precise than any that had previously been made. Copernicus’s moving Earth demanded a new theory of how moving bodies behave. This theory of motion was effectively initiated as a new mathematical science by Galileo and reached its pinnacle a few decades later in the work of Isaac Newton.
Nicolaus Copernicus Polish astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus revolutionized science by postulating that the Earth and other planets revolve about a stationary Sun. Copernicus drew inspiration from classical sources, but embodied the spirit of curiosity and experimentation that characterized the Renaissance approach to science.
Johannes KeplerThe contributions of German mathematician and astronomer Johannes Kepler,dramatically increased scientists’ understanding of planetary motion; Isaac Newton drew upon Kepler’s work in formulating his theory of gravitation. Kepler also made detailed studies of a supernova.
Isaac NewtonIsaac Newton’s work represents one of the greatest contributions to science ever made by an individual. Most notably, Newton derived the law of universal gravitation, invented the branch of mathematics called calculus, and performed experiments investigating the nature of light and colors.
