Description

Robert Hooke was one of the most gifted men of his age, but it was his great misfortune to work in the sphere of two remarkable men – Isaac Newton and Christopher Wren. While they gained the recognition of a monument in Westminster Abbey, Hooke died unloved, alone and in poverty. This title recognizes the great contribution that he made.
