Hardback. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. 1st Edition. This illustrated 2002 first edition copy is sold in FINE condition in a FINE unclipped dustwrapper. Isaac Newton is now universally celebrated as a genius of science, renowned for his innovatory work on gravity and optics. Yet, Newton did not always enjoy…such legendary status. His posthumous reputation has constantly changed and is riddled with contradictions. "Newton" investigates the different ways in which Newton's life and works have been interpreted at different times. It charts his transformation into a scientific genius, explaining the changing attitude of the scientific community towards Newton's ideas, from Berkeley to Einstein. It also explores the making of Newton the national hero, through the myths that surround him and the many artistic and literary descriptions of him. "Newton" tells the fascinating story of Newton's reputation, shedding light on the growth of science generally and on our changing attitude towards our intellectual heritage. 'Fara's brilliant book is not so much a biography as the story of a phenomenon .fascinating' - "Scotsman". 'Fara does not debunk Newton as recent novelists have but delivers him more whole and greater than ever' - "Sunday Herald.
