Biography
Born on December 25 of 1642 (corresponding to January 4 of 1643 of the new calendar) in Woolsthorpe, Lincolnshire, England, was the son of two peasants Puritans, but was never known her father since he died in October 1642. When his mother re-married, left him by his grandmother, with whom he lived until the death of his stepfather in 1653. He studied at the Free Grammar School in Grantham and the age of eighteen he entered the University of Cambridge to continue his studies. His first mentor was Benjamin Pulleyn official. Newton never regularly attended his classes, since their main interest was the library. He graduated from Trinity College as a mediocre student because of his training primarily self-taught, reading some of the most important books on mathematics and natural philosophy at the time. In 1663 Newton read the Clavis mathematicae William Oughtred, the geometry of Descartes, of Frans van Schooten, the optics of Kepler, the Opera mathematica Viet, edited by Van Schoot, and in 1664, the arithmetic of John Wallis, who will serve as an introduction to his research on the infinite series, the binomial theorem and some quadratures.
In 1663 he met Isaac Barrow, who gave him his first class as a professor of mathematics Lucasiano. At the same time came into contact with the work of Galileo, Fermat, Huygens and others since, probably, of the 1659 edition of the geometry by Descartes Van Schoot. Newton passed quickly to Barrow, who frequently sought his help in mathematical problems.

In this era geometry and optics and had a key role in the life of Newton. It was at this time when his fame began to grow as they began a correspondence with the Royal Society (Real Sociedad). Newton sent them some of their discoveries and a telescope that aroused great interest of the members of the Company, but also criticism from some members, notably Robert Hooke. This was the beginning of one of the disputes we had in his scientific career. It is believed that Newton proved aggressiveness to his opponents, who were mainly (but not only) Hooke, Leibniz, and in religion, the Church of Rome. When he was president of the Royal Society, was described as a cruel dictator, and vengeful-looking suits. However, it was a letter from Robert Hooke, in which he commented on his intuitive ideas about gravity, he did initiate a full study on the mechanics and gravity. Newton solved the problem that Hooke had failed and its results are written in what many scientists believe is the most important book in the history of science, Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica.
In 1693 it suffered a big psychological crisis, which caused long periods in which they remained isolated, during which they did not eat nor sleep. In this era suffered depression and fits of paranoia.

Some historians believe that the crisis was caused by the breakdown of his relationship with his disciple Nicolas Fatio Duillier of the majority, however, believes that at this time Newton had been poisoned by making their alchemical experiments. After writing the Principia left Cambridge moving to London where he held various public positions of prestige being appointed Marshal of the King, judge of Charterhouse and director of the Mint.
Among his interests were more profound alchemy and religion, issues on which his writings in volume by far exceed their scientific writings. Among his religious views and defended the Arianism was convinced that the Scriptures had been raped in support of the Trinitarian doctrine. This caused serious problems to be part of Trinity College in Cambridge and its religious ideas that could be prevented director of the College. Among his alchemical studies was interested in esoteric subjects such as the transmutation of the elements, the philosopher's stone and the elixir of life.

Biografía
Nació el 25 de diciembre de 1642 (correspondiente al 4 de enero de 1643 del nuevo calendario) en Woolsthorpe, Lincolnshire, Inglaterra; fue hijo de dos campesinos puritanos, aunque nunca llegó a conocer a su padre, pues había muerto en octubre de 1642. Cuando su madre volvió a casarse, lo dejó a cargo de su abuela, con quien vivió hasta la muerte de su padrastro en 1653. Realizó estudios en la Free Grammar School en Grantham y a los dieciocho años ingresó en la Universidad de Cambridge para continuar sus estudios. Su primer tutor oficial fue Benjamín Pulleyn. Newton nunca asistió regularmente a sus clases, ya que su principal interés era la biblioteca. Se graduó en el Trinity College como un estudiante mediocre debido a su formación principalmente autodidacta, leyendo algunos de los libros más importantes de matemática y filosofía natural de la época. En 1663 Newton leyó la Clavis mathematicae de William Oughtred, la Geometría de Descartes, de Frans van Schooten, la Óptica de Kepler, la Opera mathematica de Viète, editadas por Van Schooten y, en 1664, la Aritmética de John Wallis, que le serviría como introducción a sus investigaciones sobre las series infinitas, el teorema del binomio y ciertas cuadraturas.
En 1663 conoció a Isaac Barrow, quien le dio clase como su primer profesor Lucasiano de matemática. En la misma época entró en contacto con los trabajos de Galileo, Fermat, Huygens y otros a partir, probablemente, de la edición de 1659 de la Geometría de Descartes por Van Schooten. Newton superó rápidamente a Barrow, quien solicitaba su ayuda frecuentemente en problemas matemáticos.
Réplica de un telescopio construido por Newton.
En esta época la geometría y la óptica ya tenían un papel esencial en la vida de Newton. Fue en este momento en que su fama comenzó a crecer ya que inició una correspondencia con la Royal Society (Sociedad Real). Newton les envió algunos de sus descubrimientos y un telescopio que suscitó un gran interés de los miembros de la Sociedad, aunque también las críticas de algunos de sus miembros, principalmente Robert Hooke. Esto fue el comienzo de una de la muchas disputas que tuvo en su carrera científica. Se considera que Newton demostró agresividad ante sus contrincantes que fueron principalmente, (pero no únicamente) Hooke, Leibniz y, en lo religioso, la Iglesia de Roma. Cuando fue presidente de la Royal Society, fue descrito como un dictador cruel, vengativo y busca-pleitos. Sin embargo, fue una carta de Robert Hooke, en la que éste comentaba sus ideas intuitivas acerca de la gravedad, la que hizo que iniciara de lleno sus estudios sobre la mecánica y la gravedad. Newton resolvió el problema con el que Hooke no había podido y sus resultados los escribió en lo que muchos científicos creen que es el libro más importante de la historia de la ciencia, el Philosophiae naturalis principia mathematica.
En 1693 sufrió una gran crisis psicológica, causante de largos periodos en los que permaneció aislado, durante los que no comía ni dormía. En esta época sufrió depresión y arranques de paranoia. Mantuvo correspondencia con su amigo, el filósofo John Locke, en la que, además de contarle su mal estado, lo acusó en varias ocasiones de cosas que nunca hizo. Algunos historiadores creen que la crisis fue causada por la ruptura de su relación con su discípulo Nicolás Fatio de Duillier; la mayoría, sin embargo, opina que en esta época Newton se había envenenado al hacer sus experimentos alquímicos. Después de escribir los Principia abandonó Cambridge mudándose a Londres donde ocupó diferentes puestos públicos de prestigio siendo nombrado Preboste del Rey, magistrado de Charterhouse y director de la Casa de Moneda.
Entre sus intereses más profundos se encontraban la alquimia y la religión, temas en los que sus escritos sobrepasan con mucho en volumen sus escritos científicos. Entre sus opiniones religiosas defendía el arrianismo y estaba convencido de que las Sagradas Escrituras habían sido violadas para sustentar la doctrina trinitaria. Esto le causó graves problemas al formar parte del Trinity College en Cambridge y sus ideas religiosas impidieron que pudiera ser director del College. Entre sus estudios alquímicos estaba interesado en temas esotéricos como la transmutación de los elementos, la piedra filosofal y el elixir de la vida.
