René Descartes' philosophy on knowledge is rooted in skepticism and rationalism. He famously employed methodological doubt, questioning the certainty of all knowledge until he arrived at the foundational truth encapsulated in his statement "Cogito, ergo sum" ("I think, therefore I am"). Descartes believed that true knowledge must be clear and distinct, derived from reason rather than sensory experience, and he emphasized the importance of a rational, systematic approach to understanding the world. This laid the groundwork for modern philosophy and the scientific method.
Both Descartes and Bacon had their own step-by-step methods that were created before the scientific method. The idea of answering scientific or philosophical questions in an ordered way came from Bacon and Descartes and is the basis of the scientific method.
