Aristotelian Sciences and Modern Philosophy

Modern philosophy is identified typically as either English or continental in the modern tradition. Descartes calls everything into question except the structure of his own thinking and begins to build up reality from what he discovers intramently. Hume will say things like you can't actually establish a causal relation. We have associated ideas and we have a mental structure whereby to process that engagement. And as a result of which you bracket formal and final causality.
