Overall, an engaging study for those interested in the history and pedagogy of science, though a level of familiarity with basic mathematics through calculus is assumed.
Martínez's more truthful reconstructions of these mythlike stories about Newton, Einstein, Darwin, and other scientists are only a starting point for a fascinating analysis of the historical and social factors that created these legends and keep them alive. This book should be required reading for all college science majors. The author's meticulous and engaging use of historical evidence will also appeal to history of science enthusiasts.
