The Strange, Secret History of Isaac Newton's Papers
#1
"The story of Newton’s writing and how it has survived to the modern day is the subject of a new [2014] book, The Newton Papers: The Strange and True Odyssey of Isaac Newton’s Manuscripts. Author Sarah Dry traces their mysterious and precarious history and reveals both the lucky twists and purposeful turns that kept the papers safe. We spoke to Dry about the famous luminary, his beliefs both rational and not, and the different ways that people have thought about Newton throughout history."
