In 1695, Isaac Newton already renowned as the greatest mind of his agemade a surprising career change. He left quiet Cambridge, where he had lived for 30 years and made his earth-shattering discoveries, and moved to London to take up the post of Warden of His Majestys Mint. Newton was preceded to the city by a genius of another kind, the budding criminal William Chaloner.

Interesting but Long
Revisado: 03-11-10
The core of the biography on Newton and his work with the mint is quite interesting as is the general survey of his life. Just wish it had been edited down a bit as the narrative drags in place. Still on the whole a good listen.
