The One Discovery That Newton May Not Have Seen Coming

It is beyond any doubt that Sir Isaac Newton was not only one of the most brilliant scientific minds the world has ever encountered, but also one of the most influential. His incredible volume of work, and his remarkable theories helped to define modern science. Sir Isaac Newton is rightfully renowned for his work as a philosopher (Newton was a deeply devote man of Christianity, reputed to have spent more time with his bible than his science books), mathematician, alchemist, and perhaps his most famous role, a groundbreaking physicist.

Like many of the wisest men in history Newton is a reported recluse - only one small romance is ever credited to his name, a teenage relationship with the stepdaughter of a man he was lodging with at the time. The relationship was short lived and from thereon out Newton is said to have lived his life as a bachelor. However a thoroughly modern theory has developed as of late which may begin to shed some light on the reasons behind why Newton was - despite all his fame, brilliance, and reputation - such a secluded, quiet, and perhaps even withdrawn person.
