Published/Created: San Francisco, CA : MacAdam/Cage Pub., c2003. Description: xxiv, 482 p., [16] p. of plates : ill. ; 24 cm. IThe hunchbacked polymath Robert Hooke was one of the greatest minds of his age, and yet his friend Sir Christopher Wren and his rival Sir Isaac Newton have overshadowed him for nearly three centuries. Hooke dabbled in astronomy, paleontology, architecture, engineering, and anatomy, without establishing himself in any of these fields. He nonetheless invented such indisputably useful items as the sash window, and the universal joint, used in automobile transmissions. Stephen Inwood's biography revisits the life of this contentious trailblazer, and includes 16 pages of period illustrations. . more information
