An emblematic figure of science, he is above all recognized for having founded classical mechanics, for his theory of universal gravitation and the creation, in competition with Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, of infinitesimal calculus. In optics, he developed a theory of color based on the observation that a prism decomposes white light into a visible spectrum. He also invented the reflecting telescope consisting of a concave primary mirror called Newton's telescope.In mechanics, he established the three universal laws of motion which in fact constitute the principles at the basis of Newton's great theory concerning the movement of bodies, a theory which today is called "Newtonian mechanics" or even "mechanics classic”.He is also known for the generalization of the binomial theorem and the invention known as Newton's method for finding approximations of a zero (or root) of a function of a real variable with real values.Newton showed that the movement of objects on Earth and of celestial bodies are governed by the same natural laws; Based on Kepler's laws on the movement of the planets1, he developed the universal law of gravitation.His work Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica2,3, published in 1687, is considered a major work in the history of science. It is in this that he describes the universal law of gravitation, formulates the three universal laws of motion and lays the foundations of classical mechanics. He also carried out research in the fields of theology and alchemy. England having not yet adopted the Gregorian calendar, the date of birth of Isaac Newton is recorded as December 25, 1642N 1, at the manor of Woolsthorpe near Grantham, in Lincolnshire (England), to farmer parents4 . His father died three months before his birth and his mother, Hannah Ayscough, remarried when little Isaac was three years old. He is then placed with his grandmother under the guardianship of his uncle; his childhood seems not to be very happy5. At five years old, he attended Skillington primary school, then at twelve years old, Grantham primary school.Four years leftIsaac Newton (December 25, 1642 – Mars 20, 1727, or January 4, 1643 – Mars 31, 1727) was an English and later British philosopher, mathematician, physicist, alchemist, astronomer, and theologian.
