Actually it is Aristotle who is the founder of the western scientific philosophy, not Plato
You might have learn that when you were reading all that back in the 60's.

Aristotle

More than twenty-three hundred years after his death, Aristotle remains one of the most influential people who ever lived. He contributed to almost every field of human knowledge then in existence, and he was the founder of many new fields. According to the philosopher Bryan Magee, "it is doubtful whether any human being has ever known as much as he did". [71] Aristotle was the founder of formal logic, [72] pioneered the study of zoology, and left every future scientist and philosopher in his debt through his contributions to the scientific method. [73] [74]
