Along with his contemporary Rene Descartes (1596-1650), he is one of the founders of the mechanical philosophy of nature, which they proposed as a replacement for the Aristotelianism that had provided philosophical foundations for natural philosophy since at least the thirteenth century.

Pierre Gassendi and the Birth of Early Modern Philosophy by Osler, Margaret J. / Renaissance Quarterly

Using well-known episodes from the history of science, such as mechanical philosophy and Newtonian gravitation, elective affinities and the chemical revolution, natural history and taxonomy, evolutionary biology, the dynamical theory of electromagnetism, and quantum theory, Dear here reveals how the very different principles of knowing and doing were brought together as a new enterprise, science, which would be practiced by a new kind of person, the scientist.

The Intelligibility of Nature: How Science Makes Sense of the World by Levinson, Martin H. / ETC.: A Review of General Semantics

His narrative is broadly chronological, beginning with the rediscovery of classical sources including Archimedes and Pappus by dal Monte, Stevin, Benedetti, the young Galileo, and others and continuing through discussion of the work of Galileo and his disciples and the rise of mechanical philosophy and Descartes.
