The Man Who Saw Everything

By Michael Webster

0 - Default Title
Description
The ultimate polymath, Hooke gave the world the word Cell, architected the rebuilding of London after the Great Fire, and discovered the foundational law of elasticity. As the Royal Society's indispensable Curator of Experiments, his genius spanned the infinitesimal structure of a flea's eye to the calculation of planetary orbits.Yet, his monumental legacy was systematically eclipsed. A bitter, lifelong feud with Isaac Newton resulted in the scattering of his papers and the loss of his physical likeness, effectively writing him out of history.This book retrieves the story of the man who saw everything. It is a detailed, compelling journey to restore the "unrecognized universalist" to his rightful place as the essential, mechanical, and empirical backbone of modern science.
