London: HarperCollins 2003. No marks or inscriptions. A very clean very tight copy with bright unmarked boards and no bumping to corners. Dust jacket not price clipped or marked or torn with slight creasing to upper edge. 422pp. Robert Hooke was an engineer surveyor architect and inventor who was appointed London's Chief Surveyor after the Great Fire of 1666. He is nowadays largely forgotten although physics students may recall his Hooke's Law of Elasticity. In a fit of temper Sir Isac Newton wiped Hooke's name from the Royal Society records which may go some way to explaining his elative obscurity. This in-depth study descibes his professional and his personal life. Hard Cover. Fine/Very Good . 9.5 x 6.25 inches. HarperCollins Hardcover

This was largely a collection of books regarded by him as a set of working tools - several of the well-thumbed surviving items are evidence of this. The books Newton owned are of considerable interest and importance principally to Newtonian scholars and to historians of science as well as to booksellers librarians and book-collectors. The library was kept virtually intact until 1920 when more than half the volumes were auctioned and subsequently dispersed. Scholars have hitherto had to rely on the unpublished Huggins List 1727 and Musgrave Catalogue c. 1766 or on their less than satisfactory transcription issued in 1931. John Harrison has now remedied this deficiency by compiling a complete and comprehensive catalogue of Newton's library.". First Printing of the First Edition. Hardcover.
