Isaac Newton was a prodigy of his age, as a well-known physicist and mathematician he was able to become an outstanding figure during the Science Revolution. His writings and theories amazed many of the scientific minds during that time. As his knowledge and reputation grew, he was able to spread the influence of Math and Physics throughout the whole world. Even to today, Issac Newton’s work is used in many different forms, and he was one of the most inspirational scientists ever to be created by God! “Isaac Newton was born on January 4, 1643 in Woolsthrope, England, United Kingdom”(biography.com) Before Isaac Newton was born; his father died three months before. When he was born, he was a weak baby and was not expected to live. Although he

At Cambridge, Newton was fascinated by Mathematics and Physics, although he did not care for many of the other topics. He advanced in Physics and Mathematics, which led him to start dual courses because of his excellent performance. Newton graduated from the Cambridge College but was granted four more years to study for Cambridge. The Great Plague was spreading during that time, and it arrived a Cambridge, making the College shut down. Although the College was not available, Newton went back home and studied further into the vast ocean of unknown Math and Science. He followed the theory of Infinitesimal calculus, which he set his theory of light and color, and also gather insight on the planetary motion. After the plague was over, he returned to Cambridge with his new knowledge and obtained his degree of Master of Arts in 1669. During that time, Nicholas Mercator published a book on methods of dealing with the infinite series, which interested Newton. Nicholas Mercator inspired Newton, and he wrote a treatise named De Analysis, which shared his wide range of scientific results. He shared it with his friend Isaac Barrow, but Barrow did not include Newton’s name as the author. After sharing the manuscript to John Collins, Barrow revealed Newton’s name as the author of the book, which brought some attention in the Mathematics community for the first
