We wrote about our research on Newton&#8217;s mathematical <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.otago.ac.nz\/emxphi\/2010\/09\/newtons-mathematical-method\/\">method<\/a> and on the experimental method in <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.otago.ac.nz\/emxphi\/2010\/09\/experimental-method-in-moral-philosophy\/\">British moral philosophy<\/a>, in particular in George <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.otago.ac.nz\/emxphi\/2010\/10\/turnbull-and-the-%e2%80%98spirit%e2%80%99-of-the-experimental-method\/\">Turnbull<\/a>. We discussed the <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.otago.ac.nz\/emxphi\/2010\/08\/is-x-phi-old-hat\/\">difference<\/a> between contemporary and early modern experimental philosophy. We  <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.otago.ac.nz\/emxphi\/2010\/09\/esp-is-best\/\">argued<\/a> that it is better to interpret the history of early modern philosophy  in the light of the distinction between experimental vs speculative philosophy, rather than rationalism  vs empiricism.
