    Abstract considerations: disciplines and the incoherence of Newton’s natural philosophy.Rob Iliffe - 2004 - Studies in History and Philosophy of Science Part A 35 (3):427-454.
    Historians have long sought putative connections between different areas of Newton’s scientific work, while recently scholars have argued that there were causal links between even more disparate fields of his intellectual activity. In this paper I take an opposite approach, and attempt to account for certain tensions in Newton’s ‘scientific’ work by examining his great sensitivity to the disciplinary divisions that both conditioned and facilitated his early investigations in science and mathematics. These momentous undertakings, exemplified by research that he wrote (...)

    Priest of nature: the religious worlds of Isaac Newton.Rob Iliffe - 2017 - [New York ]: Oxford University Press.
    Religion and faith dominated much of Newton's life and work. His papers, never made available to the public, were filled with biblical speculation and timelines along with passages that excoriated the early Church fathers. Indeed, his radical theological leanings rendered him a heretic, according to the doctrines of the Anglican Church.

    Uno de los proyectos más deseados, pero de difícil ejecución, debido a la descripción de los manuscritos, su volumen y la complejidad de su contenido, ha sido una Opera Omnia realmente completas de Newton. Este artículo muestra cómo el Newton Project, lanzado en 1998, se ha propuesto llenar este vacío al integrar la investigación sobre Newton, su pensamiento y su contexto con una indagación activa en ingeniería de software para producir un resultado confiable de los manuscritos en primer lugar en (...)

  12. The Cambridge Companion to Newton.Rob Iliffe & George E. Smith (eds.) - 2016 - Cambridge University Press.
    Sir Isaac Newton was one of the greatest scientists of all time, a thinker of extraordinary range and creativity who has left enduring legacies in mathematics and physics. While most famous for his Principia, his work on light and colour, and his discovery of the calculus, Newton devoted much more time to research in chemistry and alchemy, and to studying prophecy, church history and ancient chronology. This new edition of The Cambridge Companion to Newton provides authoritative introductions to these further (...)
