I received this link about a program radio from BBC 4. It is interesting conversation on the scientific method. They began discussing on Bacon’s contributions.

Something that might be interesting to read from K. Popper (1953) “Science: Conjectures and refutations”. http://philosophyfaculty.ucsd.edu/faculty/rarneson/Courses/popperphil1.pdf
