A short introduction to Professor Flood's lecture on Isaac Newton. Though Newton's work is of foundational importance, very little is said about the man himself. Professor Flood describe Newton as a "suspicious, neurotic and tortured personality" and explains why we should be greatful to know his work, even if we don't know the man.
