Thought Proportions






WIRED: How much of Newton(25 December 1642 – 20 March 1727)’s writing has survived?I

Dry: A huge amount. There’s roughly 10 million words - enough to fill up roughly 150 novel-length books - that Newton left. Around half of the writing is religious, and there are about 1 million words on alchemical material, most of which is copies of other people’s stuff. There are about 1 million words related to his work as Master of the Mint. And then roughly 3 million related to science and math.
