Jordan's Reviews > Never at Rest: A Biography of Isaac Newton

An absolutely wonderful book. This book provides a comprehensive overview of Newton's life, and more importantly, his achievements. Often when titans of science or mathematics are given the biography treatment the book will go heavy on the interpersonal drama and light on the content of the achievements themselves.

That is not the case here. A fascinating exploration of Newton's discoveries are given, in clear and delightful detail. I found the book to be gripping and extremely fun.
