This book is a mixture of history and fiction. It's about Isaac Newton's suspicious circumstances surrounding his appointment as a Fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge, in 1667. I learned about Newton's involvement with glassmaking and alchemy. The book switches back and forth between the present and the 17th century.

Brief life of Sir Isaac. Sympathetic to him, though if one reads between the lines, he could obviously be very difficult to deal with. I realise it's not meant to be a scholarly work, but there were some quotations which were unattributed and it would have been nice to know who said it, even if it was a name I didn't recognise.

“...if only we could jump fast enough, or had a strong enough wind at our backs, we could all be planets.” 🌏✨ #isaacnewton #gravity #planets

Love this. I draw a lot of portraits of people and animals. This quote made me think of the style I strive for while I work on each art piece. I guess I try to draw the same way Isaac Newton did according to this book. 🤔#art #drawing #idealism #alchemy #isaacnewton

I read this book about 6 years ago and I probably won‘t forget it. I really enjoyed this book and still have it on my bookshelves.

The Who is/ Who was series of B books are a New York Times Best Seller and a great addition to any classroom! Each book talks about someone of importance in our worlds history, in particular I read about Isaac Newton and learned information about his early life along with his amazing discoveries! This book would be a good IR opportunity for students. #ucflae3414f19
