It is at this point that we may return to one of our initial premises— that the corpuscular theory obtained by fusing alchemy and the type of Aristotelianism found in the Meteorology was genuinely experimental. In effect, Sennert considered his principles to be the limits attained by the analytical methods of the laboratory, a concept that modern scholars have found in the work of Robert Boyle. As Bernadette Bensaude-Vincent and Isabelle Stengers have pointed out, Boyle s closely related definition of an element as that into which bodies are ultimately resolved, was based on a negative-empirical concept ... that reflected the limits of technical analysis. Precisely this attitude underlay the tradition of scholastic alchemy appropriated by Sennert and developed further by... [Pg.96]

Using the philosophical stance adopted by Bernadette Bensaude-Vincent and Isabelle Stengers in their History of Chemistry Barry argues that chemistry in pharmacy is a particularly interesting case of the general principle of a material information science creating informed materials. [Pg.525]

This way of thinking about the problem of realism corresponds to what Isabelle Stengers has termed the faith of the physicist . This credo, championed by Max Planck and Albert Einstein among others. [Pg.175]
