Totally agree. He tried to solve difficult problems, with some he succeeded, with others he didn’t. He would deserve derision if he had published theories about alchemy, but he didn’t.
- WealthVsSurvive 6y agoCorrect me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe he knew the difference between the success and failures; it was all just piled up and someone had to come along, sort through it, and tell him it was important. He sought patterns.
- spaetzleesser 6y agoDidn’t he publish his work about gravity and light but not about alchemy ? It seems to me he had a pretty good handle on results that were worth publishing vs the ones that weren’t.
