Title: Really enjoyed this book
Review: I am about halfway through this book. I really appreciate the balanced way he presents Isaac Newton's life. The book is very well written, and presents both sides of Mr. Newton - the brilliant scientist that laid the foundation for modern science and engineering, as well as the alchemist - the mystic - and the flawed individual and his various feuds with some of his contemporaries. I also appreciate the time the author spends discussing the world Mr. Newton lived in - what were the dominant paradigms, and who were the people that contributed to them. As such, the book fulfills a secondary purpose of providing an overview of how we arrived at our current scientific paradigm. I recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn more about Sir Isaac Newton, and also learn about the evolution of the thinking behind modern science.
