Editorial Review

Science writer Michael White's subtitle, Read more

Reviews (24)

4-0 out of 5 stars The Last Sorcerer
The Last Sorcerer begins with the theories of past philosophers and thinkers like Aristotle and Galileo.It also gives experts about Newton's life through out the entire novel.I found the book a little hard to follow and understand as it jumped from one chapter to the next without much connections between each.However, it is a good source of information on Newton's family, life, and how hegrew up to be the great physist he became.Although hard to understand, it is easy reading because the novel is written in a story-book format.It is more engaging and interesting, while still presenting factual information than most biographies.

4-0 out of 5 stars "For alchemy does not trade with metals as ignorant vulgars think"---Sir Isaac Newton
Isaac Newton: The Last Sorcerer is a well-written, well-researched, and insightful account of the life of one of the (maybe THE) most influential and important scientists and mathematicians in history.Michael White, as implied by the title of his work, has an ambitious thesis to his study: that alchemy was key to Newton's ground-breaking discoveries.According to White, without his controversial pursuit of alchemical goals like the Philosopher's Stone, Newton would not have established his theory on gravity, etc.While the idea is intriguing and probably true (one's interests and studies in specific areas will often influence what one discovers and how one understands other areas), White provides very little evidence to support his thesis and relies mostly on speculation and guessing.
4-0 out of 5 stars Still a massive figure, but ordinary after all.
I start in confessional mode - Newton has long been one of my heroes. Some time ago, I read significant parts of his major works; both Opticks and Principia [or The Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy]. The King's School, Grantham, was also my place of secondary education, so I have seen the statue of `Ike' in the centre of Grantham in rain and sunshine. This book takes the statue off its pedestal, but still leaves readers in awe at the colossal figure in history that was Isaac Newton.

4-0 out of 5 stars Everyone knows it's Windy
Alas poor science books.Forever to be doomed to the non-fiction section of the library where, occasionally, a student will pull one out to help with their school's science project.I've always found children's scientific picture books to be especially depressing little creations.More often than not they're drawn or illustrated in such a way that their messages go out of date, even as their science remains correct.Fortunately for us all, I don't think this will be the fate of "I Face the Wind".True, it's trendy.But it is also such a nice little compilation of facts and experiments that I hope it doesn't disappear too quickly in the unused library shelves for all time.5-0 out of 5 stars T-Air-rifc!
This book is a great introduction to the concept that air is a real thing even though it can't be seen.It has easy experiments that anyone could do at home. The illustrations give life to the experiments and the information.The story does an excellent job of introducing the idea of air as a real thing even though kids can't see it. It touches on the science of molecules. I would recommend this book for preschool clear through elementary.It would be a great starting off point for discussing gases and I would consider it a very early flirtation with chemistry. ...
