1632 On August 29th, the British philosopher John Locke was born. Together with Locke, Becker and Hume, they are representatives of British empiricism. As a pioneer of empiricism philosophy, the latter two were influenced by him. Like Locke Bacon, he has a keen interest in experimental science. He specialized in medicine during his college years and obtained a bachelor's degree in medicine. He is the personal doctor of Earl shaftesbury, the leader of Whig Party in England, and his medical skill is superb.

Locke was also a pioneer of the Enlightenment, and his works influenced many enlightenment thinkers, such as Voltaire, Montesquieu and Rousseau. He made great contributions to classical republicanism and liberalism in political philosophy, so he was called "the father of liberalism" and the godfather of American revolution.

First of all, the British Whig leader's personal doctor

After graduating from high school, Locke was admitted to the Christian College of Oxford University. Although his academic performance has been good, he is tired of college courses. He was interested in Descartes' philosophy, experimental philosophy and medicine, which laid the foundation for his pioneering achievements in philosophy and becoming the earl's personal doctor.

Locke is happy to make friends. While studying at Oxford University, he met Earl shaftesbury, the leader of the Whig Party at that time. The count was worried about his liver disease, so he invited Locke to his home to be a private doctor. Locke's parents and only brother have died, so Locke moved to the earl's house and lived with the earl's family.

Locke's extraordinary knowledge benefited the Earl family a lot. He is not only a tutor for children, but also a health care doctor for everyone. He also helped the count's eldest son find a wife. When the young lady gave birth, he delivered the baby himself. After the baby was born smoothly, Locke performed another liver operation for the count and took out a large tumor. Not to mention the backward era of medicine, even now it is not an easy thing. A famous doctor at that time once commented on Locke, saying that he not only had the greatest judgment, but also had the most skillful skills. Even compared with himself, Locke is a deserved expert.
