 d an experimental approach to the study of nature as the proper path to the
  advancement of knowledge and the preservation of civic peace. Mathematics 
 was admired, but also feared, as dangerously dogmatic and coercive. John Wa
 llis, the leading mathematician in the group, set out to reconcile his fiel
 d with the ideals of the early Royal Society by developing a radical new ap
 proach. Whereas traditional mathematics prided itself on irrefutable deduct
 ive proofs, Wallis's approach relied on material intuition, inductive reaso
 ning, and truth-claims founded on consensus, not coercion. It was a new mat
 hematics modeled on the Society's experimental philosophy</p>
