"A picture-book biography of young Isaac Newton, who 'discovered' gravity, developed calculus, and uncovered the secrets of light and color"--Provided by publisher.

Explores the work of physicist Isaac Newton who found that gravity affects the movements of Earth and the other planets in space.

Isaac Newton is best known for his theories of motion and gravitation. These laws served as the foundation of science for the past three hundred years. In addition, using a prism, Newton first discovered the that sunlight is actually made up of light rays of many different colors. Among his other discoveries is the branch of mathematics called calculus.

A biography of the seventeenth-century English scientist who developed the theory of gravity, discovered the secrets of light and color, and formulated the system of calculus.

A biography of physicist Isaac Newton, who found that gravity affects the movements of Earth and the other planets in space.

Sir Isaac Newton formulated the laws of universal gravitation and the three laws of motion. These explain how forces act on matter, and on how matter responds to forces. This leads to an understanding of how things move.

Describes how scientists learn about the natural world by developing hypotheses from their observations, testing their theories, and understanding basic scientific laws.

Chronicles the life and career of mathematician and physicist Isaac Newton.

A biography of physicist Isaac Newton, who found that gravity affects the movements of Earth and the other planets in space.

Chronicles the twenty-year battle, public and private, between Sir Isaac Newton and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz over who invented calculus.
