OCR: Met Amtal ANT In his work as a scientist and engineer, Leonardo relied on both controlled experiments and meticulous observations of nature. Another useful method of discovery was analogy: "Observe the motion of the surface of the water, which resembles that of hair, which has two motions, one of which depends on the weight of the hair, the other on the direction of the curls; thus the water has eddying motions, one part of which is due to the principal current, the other to the random and reverse motion."
