Isaac Newton: Mastermind of Modern Science
Illustrated by Griffin, John
If ever a man merited the name of mastermind, it was the great English physicist, Isaac Newton. The discovery of the Laws of Motion, universal gravitation, the reflecting telescope, and calculus-these and more of Newton's contributions are the very cornerstones of modern science. It was also Newton's experimental approach, combined with his astonishing insights, that paved the way for modern scientific inquiry.
