We examine his lesser-known pursuits in alchemy and theology, his intense rivalries with fellow scientists, and the lasting impact of his discoveries on science and philosophy. Was Newton’s genius inseparable from his obsessive tendencies? Join us as we explore the intersection of brilliance, eccentricity, and scientific revolution.
