Thomas Markby M.a.
Francis Bacon,1st Viscount St Alban KC (1561-1626) was an English philosopher, statesman, scientist, lawyer, jurist, and author. He served both as Attorney General and Lord Chancellor of England. Although his political career ended in disgrace, he remained extremely influential through his works, especially as philosophical advocate and practitioner of the scientific revolution. Indeed, his dedication may have brought him into a rare historical group of scientists who were killed by their own experiments. "The Proficience and Advancement of Learning" (1605) is one of his landmark works.
