About this audiobook

Isaac newton is considered one of the most important scientists in history. Even albert einstein said that isaac newton was the smartest person that ever lived. During his lifetime newton developed the theory of gravity, the laws of motion (which became the basis for physics), a new type of mathematics called calculus, and made breakthroughs in the area of optics such as the reflecting telescope. In this work he described the three laws of motion as well as the law of universal gravity. This work would go down as one of the most important works in the history of science. It not only introduced the theory of gravity, but defined the principals of modern physics. In this book, readers will find: A fun and inspiring biography of isaac newton Simple experiments and thought-provoking questions to explore science at home Key vocabulary with easy definitions A timeline of newton’s life and career Fun facts about his discoveries and legacy In the late seventeenth century, chaos and disease reigned. Streets overflowed with filth and the murder rate was five times higher than it is today. Sickness was divine punishment, astronomy and astrology were indistinguishable, and the world's most brilliant, ambitious, and curious scientists were tormented by contradiction. They believed in angels, devils, and alchemy, yet also believed that the universe followed precise mathematical laws that were as intricate and perfectly regulated as the mechanisms of a great clock.
