Description
Christopher Wren (1632-1723) was the greatest architect Britain has ever known. But he was more than that. A founder of the Royal Society, his observations on comets, meteorology and muscular action made vital contributions to the developing ideas of Newton, Halley and Boyle. This biography presents the first complete picture of this towering genius and shows us the man behind the legend.
