Description

This book by the well-known Soviet scholar and writer V. P. Kartsev is the first scientific-and-literary biography in Russian of one of the greatest thinkers in the world—English mathematician, physicist, mechanician, and astronomer Isaac Newton, whose impact shaped the entire development of science up to our time. The book is built on extensive documentary material, both domestic and foreign. It also offers a broad panorama of England’s public and scientific life in the late 17th century and the first half of the 18th century.
