The New Organon (Novum Organum) by Francis Bacon, Baron Verulam, (1620) 

provided a unified organization of scientific ideas that with some 

variations we still use today. This paradigm included political science and 

law, and Bacon outlines some of the key ideas of constitutional design. 

Bacon was an official of the English court.
