The tools of productive science

This book presents reflections on the scientific method based on the philosophy that investigates the phenomena of nature. The proposal for instruments of productive science refers to Aristotle, who founded the Organon as an instrument of analytical logic in the face of phenomena apprehended by the senses. Aristotle considered that productive science was based on the production of techniques through which the scientist would be able to intervene in the object of study and solve problems in the face of the reality being investigated. Medieval and modern philosophers contributed to the reformulation of this Aristotelian logic in the investigation of natural phenomena, such as Thomas Aquinas and Francis Bacon. Philosophy presents itself as a rational basis for the formulation of the scientific method, which means that Geography, which studies nature, needs to base its categories on the study of empirically investigated natural phenomena, whose inductive method is one of the main ways to get closer to the object of study and produce a brand new science based on the diversity of landscapes and objects.
