“Sir David Brewster’s ‘Life of Sir Isaac Newton’ is a valuable
contribution to English literature. It is an account of the life,
writings, and discoveries of one of the greatest men that ever
lived, by a gentleman distinguished for his profound scholarship and
scientific knowledge. The book is worthy of the subject to which it
is devoted.”—_London Review, December 15._
“Such works as Sir David Brewster’s careful, though rather partial,
biography, are of the utmost value in presenting a faithful summary
of all that materially illustrates the character of the mind of our
great philosopher.”—_Quarterly Review, October 1861._
