Description
1740 Isaac Newton OPTICS Mathematics, Science, Physics Light Illustrated OPTICE

Famous printing of Isaac Newton on Optics and his discovery of the behavior of light and light rays.

Sir Isaac Newton (1642 – 1726) was an English physicist and mathematician (described in his own day as a "natural philosopher") who is widely recognised as one of the most influential scientists of all time and a key figure in the scientific revolution. His book Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica ("Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy"), first published in 1687, laid the foundations for classical mechanics. Newton made seminal contributions to optics, and he shares credit with Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz for the development of calculus.
