Overview

"Christian Encounters," a series of biographies from Thomas Nelson Publishers, highlights important lives from all ages and areas of the Church. Some are familiar faces. Others are unexpected guests. But all, through their relationships, struggles, prayers, and desires, uniquely illuminate our shared experience.

He built the first reflecting telescope, authored the book that became the basis for classical mechanics, and wrote the three laws of motion-and that's just a fraction of Sir Isaac Newton's achievements. Despite the fact that he's considered by many to be the most influential scientist in history, he actually wrote more about his Christian faith than he did about natural science. This "Christian Encounters" biography illuminates Newton's beliefs and how they shaped his view of the world he so desired to understand.

"An . . . elegant contribution to the growing literature about Newton."

---David Berlinski, author of ""Newton's Gift" and """The Devil's Delusion""""""""
