Isaac Newton was the genius's genius of the 17t century. Newton is clearly the most influential scientist who ever lived. His accomplishements in mathimatics, optics, and physics laid the foundations for modern science and revolutionized the world. An 18th century poem written about Sir Isaac Newton states it best:
Nature and Nature's laws lay hid in night: God
said, Let Newton Be! and all was light.
Alexander Pope.
There is a popular story that Newton was sitting under an apple tree, an apple fell on his head, and he suddenly thought of the Gavitational Law. No one knows if this is true, buit there were apple trees on his family's property, and one of them may very well have inspired him.
