  1. William Whiston, Isaac Newton and the crisis of publicity.Stephen David Snobelen - 2004 - Studies in History and Philosophy of Science Part A 35 (3):573-603.
    William Whiston was one of the first British converts to Newtonian physics and his 1696 New theory of the earth is the first full-length popularization of the natural philosophy of the Principia. Impressed with his young protégé, Newton paved the way for Whiston to succeed him as Lucasian Professor of Mathematics in 1702.
