To understand how Bacon shook the scientific community, you should first understand the science of Bacon’s time. Scientists during the late 16th century used a “top down approach” to science. According to Steven Gimbel, associate professor of philosophy and author of “Exploring the Scientific Method,” these “top-down” scientists started with a theory and ran experiments to “prove” that theory; to ensure that their findings met their theories, scientists would sometimes “conveniently” ignore or change the results of their studies. Any serious student of science knows that this method differs greatly from the science of today Bacon's proposed use of inductive reasoning encouraged scientists to come to conclusions by way of data collection.

lee and grant, both of whom held the highest rank in their respective armies, had known each other slightly during the mexican-american war (1846-48) and began their dialogue by exchanging awkward personal inquiries. characteristically, grant had arrived in his mud-splattered field uniform while lee had turned out in full dress attire, complete with sash and sword.

separation of powers, therefore, refers to the division of government responsibilities into distinct branches to limit any one branch from exercising the core functions of another. the intent is to prevent the concentration of power and provide for checks and balances.

the traditional characterizations of the powers of the branches of american government are:

* the legislative branch is responsible for enacting the laws of the state and appropriating the money necessary to operate the government.

* the executive branch is responsible for implementing and administering the public policy enacted and funded by the legislative branch.

* the judicial branch is responsible for interpreting the constitution and laws and applying their interpretations to controversies brought before it.

forty state constitutions specify that government be divided into three branches: legislative, executive and judicial. california illustrates this approach; "the powers of state government are legislative, executive, and judicial. persons charged with the exercise of one power may not exercise either of the others except as permitted by this constitution."

while separation of powers is key to the workings of american government, no democratic system exists with an absolute separation of powers or an absolute lack of separation of powers. governmental powers and responsibilities intentionally overlap; they are too complex and interrelated to be neatly compartmentalized. as a result, there is an inherent measure of competition and conflict
