About the book
"Robert Hooke stood out as an inventive, versatile, and prolific scientist and architect in an age of brilliant minds. But for three hundred years his reputation has been overshadowed by those of his two greatest contemporaries, his friend Sir Christopher Wren and his rival Sir Isaac Newton. Historian Dr. Stephen Inwood re-creates the many facets of Hooke's life as an inventor, astronomer, and anatomist, candid diarist, braggart, and hoarder of money and secrets."--Jacket.
