ill., ril. Ultimo sognatore, ossessionato alchimista, paranoico pensatore intollerante alle critiche, profondo filosofo della Natura per il quale la verità era figlia del silenzio e della meditazione. Nessuna di queste definizioni riesce però, da sola, a dare l'idea della sua prodigiosa e multiforme attività. Chi fu, veramente, Isaac Newton? Piergiorgio Odifreddi risponde alla domanda con questo libro strutturato in due parti: la prima dedicata all'uomo, con le sue asperità di carattere, dove non mancano i riferimenti alla vasta aneddotica fiorita intorno alla sua figura; la seconda allo scienziato e all'impressionante lavoro da lui compiuto, quasi sempre in perfetta solitudine (era restio a comunicare i suoi risultati, non di rado resi pubblici dopo decenni), nei più svariati campi del sapere. L'autore ce lo presenta quasi calandosi nei panni di un segreto compagno di viaggio, che osservi la sua mente al lavoro da un angolo della stanza al Trinity College, dove Newton visse gran parte della vita. Lo fa sembrare quasi un nostro contemporaneo, con le ossessioni e il metodo implacabile di un genio assoluto, probabilmente il più grande di ogni tempo. E così, anche le più ardue equazioni riguardanti le leggi del moto, la gravitazione universale, le orbite dei pianeti e il calcolo infinitesimale (per l'invenzione del quale ebbe una lunga e accanita disputa con Leibniz) parranno al lettore meno impervie.
