This text deals with Newton's understanding of the original divine design hidden in the mathematical laws of nature and delivered to humanity by messengers, such as Noah, Moses and Christ. It is written to an audience of laymen and professionals alike. It points out that, for Newton, the three laws of motion the Principia and the two central Biblical Commandments (worshipping and loving God alone and loving thy neighbour) touch upon the practical applications of God's original design.
This book is part of a series, with one book for each number up to Number Ten. They are all great, and work really well as a set. We started these books when my children were about 2, and still enjoy them at age 5. Each book focuses on one number, who is drawn with a face and presented as a character, called a Numberlie. Everything in their surroundings are in the quantity of their number. Number One lives at One Number Lane, and has one of everything. Number Two, in the Number Two book, lives at Two Number Lane, and so on. Each page has items to count that match the Numberlie of that book, and each Numberlie has a cute story to tell. When my children were little, we would read each book slowly, counting the items on each page every time. Now they nearly know the words of each book by heart, but still have fond feelings for the foibles of these lovable characters, and request the books often. These stories are very positive, and a fun way to learn to count.
