Academic - History Of Science - Biography; This edition is the first thorough-going edited collection of the many biographies of Newton, and demonstrates the way in which his reputation continued to develop in the centuries after his death. Sir Isaac Newton was one of the towering figures of British science during his lifetime and for generations to follow. His life and works inspired many to write his biography, and a body of biographical material began to emerge that was added to over the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Not all of the writings were published however, and those that went into print are often rare and hard for today's academics to come by.This edition from Pickering & Chatto is the first thorough-going edited collection of the many biographies of Newton, and demonstrates the way in which his reputation continued to develop in the centuries after his death.
