PDF-[READ]-Never at Rest: A Biography of Isaac Newton (Cambridge Paperback Library)

This richly detailed 1981 biography captures both the personal life and the scientific career of Isaac Newton presenting a fully rounded picture of Newton the man the scientist the philosopher the theologian and the public figure Professor Westfall treats all aspects of Newtons career but his account centres on a full description of Newtons achievements in science Thus the core of the work describes the development of the calculus the experimentation that altered the direction of the science of optics and especially the investigations in celestial dynamics that led to the law of universal gravitation. Sir Isaac Newton died on 20 March 1727 and within 2 months James Thomson had prepared his “Poem sacred to the Memory of Sir Isaac Newton”, an unrestrained celebration of “Britain’s Laws of Motion.

Indian mathematicians excelled for thousands of years, and eventually even developed advanced techniques but they are denied credit because of Western ascendancy. Among the Hindu mathematicians, Aryabhatta may be most famous. During Europe’s “Dark Ages”, Aryabhatta advanced arithmetic, algebra, elementary analysis, and especially trigonometry, using the decimal system. Aryabhatta is occasionally known as "Father of Algebra“. His most famous accomplishment in mathematics was the Aryabhatta Algorithm for solving Diophantine equations. Aryabhatta made several important discoveries in astronomy. He was among the ancient scholars who realized the Earth rotated daily on an axis. . An Invisible Force. Gravity.

Neurology: A Clinician\'s Approach teaches a symptom-oriented approach to the 20 most common problems which face neurologists in training. Emphasizing the primary importance of the patient history, the reader is instructed which questions to ask in order to elicit the chief complaint, how to ask these questions, and how to interpret the answers. The neurologic examination is presented as a flexible diagnostic tool rather than as a rigid exercise to be performed by rote and without reference to the chief complaint. Each chapter integrates evidence-based and experience-based approaches to diagnostic testing and treatment. Frequently-encountered conditions, uncommon zebras\', and non-neurologic mimics of nervous system dysfunction are all given appropriate weight. Neurology: A Clinician\'s Approach is essential reading for neurologists in training, including neurology residents and medical students. Sir Isaac Newton left at his death a large collection of papers on alchemy, mostly in his own handwriting the importance of this legacy has been debated ever since. When it first appeared, Professor Dobb\'s detailed analysis of the foundations of Newton\'s alchemical pursuits further stimulated interest in the subject by firmly establishing the importance of alchemy in Newton\'s thought. This book sets the foundations of Newton\'s alchemy in their historical context in Restoration England. It is shown that alchemical modes of thought and particularly those of a Neoplatonic kind, were quite strong in many of those who provided the dynamism for the scientific revolution of the seventeenth century and that these modes of thought had important relationships with general movements for reform in the same period: reform of religion, philosophy, learning, society and of man himself. Newton\'s alchemy is thus seen as a critical link between Renaissance Hermeticism and the rational chemistry and mechanics of the eighteenth century. Isaac Newton is indisputably one of the greatest scientists who ever lived. His achievements in mathematics and physics marked the culmination of the movement that brought modern science into being. In The Life of Isaac Newton, biographer extraordinaire Westfall lucidly and engagingly captures both the personal life and scientific career of Isaac Newton, presenting a fully rounded picture of Newton the man, the scientist, the philosopher, the theologian, and the public figure. This book is an abridged version of Professor Westfall\'s highly acclaimed and well known Never at Rest: A Biography of Isaac Newton. By eschewing technical details, the author makes this book accessible to a wide range of general readers interested in history of science and biography. Westfall is also the author of The Construction of Modern Science.
