gradually scientists came to challenge more and more what the ancients past civilizations taught. they came to develop new, better methods of finding out how things worked. mathematical knowledge increased and helped them to reason. they began to think up experiments to check on their ideas in a methodical way. the scientific revolution had begun.
many men were needed to bring this about. these men came from every part of europe. they wrote books to explain their ideas. the printing press made it possible to produce thousands of copies which found their way all over europe. scientists were able to learn from one another and give one another new ideas. so the scientific revolution was not the work of englishmen, or frenchmen, or italians alone. it was the work of europeans. and, as we have seen, even they did not do it all by themselves. the chinese, the indians, the persians, and the arabs all gave something before it came about. today this is not hard to understand, because men and women from all over the world add to scientific knowledge and so help one another...

base on this document, explain the historical circumstances that led to the change resulting from the scientific revolution.

Explanation:

Scientists challenged ancient teachings, developed new methods, and increased mathematical knowledge. Many European scientists contributed, and the printing - press spread ideas. Non - European civilizations also had prior contributions. This led to a shift in scientific thinking and knowledge sharing, marking the start of the Scientific Revolution.

Answer:

Scientists began to challenge ancient knowledge, developed new methods of inquiry, increased mathematical understanding, and used the printing - press to spread ideas. Many European scientists from different regions contributed, and non - European civilizations also had prior contributions, all of which led to the change resulting from the Scientific Revolution.
