Many consider Isaac Newton to be not only one of the greatest figures in the history of science, but also one of the supreme intellects ever produced by the human race. Besides his explanation of the laws of motion and gravitation and his discoveries concerning light and color, his development of calculus is regarded as the greatest creation in all of mathematics. (Bruno) More than two centuries have passed since Isaac Newton’s death, yet his legacy still lives on science. In the same year that…

Scientists throughout history have dedicated their time and livelihoods to discovering, asking, testing, working, and eventually answering questions of the world around them.

That being said, the atmosphere in the world of a scientist can direct them to, or from, progress. The scientific revolution,…

If we look into the heroic theory of invention and scientific development, I can bore you with the details of where the theory comes from or who theorized it. But instead I want to take a new angle on my research paper. I want to shine a light on one scientist. One that has inspired me the most. Florence Nightingale Florence Nightingale once said, “I attribute my success to this - I never gave or took any excuse.” Florence Nightingale contributed a lot to science but most don’t recognize her…

The scientific revolution was known for renowned developments in astronomy, physics, and mathematics. During the 16th and 17th century, the Church was mostly in control of education. If an individual wanted to study a topic, he or she would most likely seek a scholarship in order to be able to study. An example is Petrarch and how the Church allowed him to study ancient texts. The Church promoted the idea of education to individuals. Galileo Galilei was known for proving the planets orbited…
