Description
|
|
|
|
With a laminated cover resembling a notebook, and images of letters, photographs, and art on gently browned pages, Joel Levy's biographical study of Isaac Newton brings the scientist and his work vividly to life. Along with Newton's early years and education, his achievements in mathematics and optics, the publication of the Principia Mathematica, and the long-term impact of his revolutionary theories, Levy looks into his personal relationships, his work with colleagues, and his lasting legacy to science. Each two-page spread is a self-contained story or anecdote revealing a specific event in the scientist's life.
