London 1688: Isaac Newton gets assaulted in his Lab and all of his very important alchemical studies have been stolen. Newton’s students have to urgently find out the thief. Otherwise not only Newton’s reputation as a prominent scholar would be in extreme danger but also his private life…
The series "Science Mysteries" offers readers of 10 and up an exciting look at the world of inventions, technology and science. Each volume revolves around an important figure in the history of science, against whom a crime has been committed. The case is cleared up by young detectives – with the help of the reader, since, as usual in the Mysteries series, there are tricky puzzles to be solved at the end of every chapter. And along the way they learn a lot about the life, inventions and discoveries of the scientist concerned. As well as a time line, the appendix provides even more information and little experiments for readers to try out themselves. Science is made real for them in the process!
