    I would like to know where the full text of Francis Bacon's work on Novum Organum can be found along with Aristotle's Organum and Tertium Organum of Ouspensky. And are there any more organums?

    "Organum" by Aristotle (384-322 B.C.),
    the second, 'Novum Organum' by Francis Bacon (1561-1626)
    the third, 'Tertium Organum', by Pyotr D. Ouspensky (1878-1947)
    Neotech by Frank R. Wallace is the fourth organum and completes the work by Aristotle

    well I am not able to open up the link once again and it is in Latin language and not in English. Where can I obtain English language texts of the four organums.
