1. Newton's Life

Newton's life naturally divides into four parts: the years before he entered Trinity College, Cambridge in ; his years in Cambridge before the Principia was published in ; a period of almost a decade immediately following this publication, marked by the renown it brought him and his increasing disenchantment with Cambridge; and his final three decades in London, for most of which he was Master of the Mint.
