So not to long ago I was watching a show talking about
Isaac Newton and Gottfried Leibniz. Apparently Gottfried
Leibniz invented Calculus first, Newton and him were
rivaling about it. The British Royal Society said they would
review both. Newton (who was the only one on the review
board) picked his own theory of calculus to be the standard
and so history says he is responsible.

Today I also found out that he might of stole the idea of
square root inverse (for gravity in space or something) from
some other guy named Robert Hooke.I'm paraphrasing all this
of course.

I'd like to know more about it, I was wondering if anyone
here knows of any books or documentaries on the subject, or
can share an hear say on the matter. The antiquity of
history is controlled by those in power so they say, and
considering that Newton was in the British Royal Society, I
wonder how much influence that had on his standings today.

I liked it better when you were on the streets and eating
smack.
