Boyle is largely regarded today as the first modern chemist, and therefore one of the founders of modern chemistry, and one of the pioneers of modern experimental scientific method. He is best known for Boyle's law, which describes the inversely proportional relationship between the absolute pressure and volume of a gas, if the temperature is kept constant. He returned to England from Europe in mid-1644 with a keen interest in scientific research.His father, Lord Cork, had died the previous year and had left him the manor of Stalbridge in Dorset as well as substantial estates.
