    About this ebook

    Inside you will read about: 

    The English Civil War, Newton and the Apple, Newton's Work in Mathematics and Optics, Middle Years in Scientific Experiments,Principia, Newton and Alchemy, Later Life and Death And much more. Follow along as you travel from a rugged stone farmhouse to Trinity College, Cambridge to the halls of London exhibitions where Newton found himself the celebrity of the age. Looking back on Aristotle, and inspired by all that Galileo had brought the world, Newton made his life work much of what is heralded as the modern age. He saw what no one else did, and his vision saw into the universe. 

    See how he did it, and why.
