World History Biographies: Isaac Newton

Born in England in 1643, Isaac Newton grew up questioning the accepted ideas of his time and went on to develop the laws of motion and universal gravitation that reshaped our understanding of the physical world. This biography also covers his lesser-known work as an alchemist, philosopher, and inventor. This is a solid choice for students because it shows Newton as an acclaimed thinker across multiple fields rather than a one-dimensional genius.
