Robert Hooke was one of the most inventive, versatile and prolific scientists in an age of brilliant scientists, but for 300 years his reputation has been overshadowed by those of his two great contemporaries, his friend Sir Christopher Wren and his rival Sir Isaac Newton. In Stephen Inwood's new book, Hooke and Hooke's world are recreated, with all their contradictions, their successes and failures.
