Descrizione Recreating Newton
Examines Isaac Newton's changing legacy during the nineteenth century. Higgitt focuses on 1820-1870, a period that saw the creation of the specialized and secularized role of the "scientist." She shows how debates about Newton's character stimulated historical scholarship and led to the development of a new expertise in the history of science.
