The Father of Modern Science and an 'unsung' hero... Robert Hooke "In tribute to his genius and dedication to experimental science and creative thought... and his pioneering contributions to Microscopy!" by Maurice Smith - March 13th 2000 Robert Hooke Facts Page of 6 Associated Web Links Books CDs Museum The Inspirational Father of Modern Science in England? If ever a man lived who gave more to modern science yet - possibly through the action and ill-will of at least one of his contemporaries - has remained largely unacknowledged, it must be Robert Hooke: inventor, microscopist, physicist, surveyor, astronomer, biologist, artist... An unattractive man, disfigured, orphaned at 13 years of age, robbed of credit for his greatest inspirations and ideas, with many of his creations almost certainly willfully destroyed or lost after his death in 1703; only now after 300 years, is his life and extraordinary achievements beginning to receive the just recognition they so truly deserve. Most people have never heard of Robert Hooke. Those that have, probably still do not realize the magnitude of his contribution to modern science. From the publication of his Micrographia (the world's first comprehensive illustrated book on microscopy), to his work on clocks, springs, gases, his inventions, his ideas on fossils, weather, gravity, and light, through to his rebuilding of London with Christoper Wren, this extraordinary man helped to shape our world today.

The Father of Modern Science and an 'unsung' hero... Robert Hooke "In tribute to his genius and dedication to science and creative thought... and his breakthrough contributions to Microscopy!" by Maurice Smith - March 13th 2000 Robert Hooke Facts Page of 6 Associated Web Links Books CDs Museum English Father of Microscopy Hooke was not just an observer. When asked to produce a model of the eye for demonstration before the Royal Society, he created one containing an iris diaphragm. This may well have inspired his creation of an improved compound microscope - complete with iris diaphragm and independent light source... See a 3D image of this microscope Replica of a Hooke Microscope on show at the Science Museum - London. The illustration from which it was made is behind the microscope. Micrographia, Hooke's first published work contained details of an improved microscope which influenced microscope makers both then and years later. Hooke corresponded with several other pioneering microscopists of the day - including Anthony van Leeuwenhoek the pioneering microscopist in the Netherlands. He demonstrated to the society on the 10th November 1677 - Leeuwenhoek's discovery of 'minute worms' in pepper water. It was Hooke therefore who confirmed Anthony van Leeuwenhoek's discoveries of the existence of tiny living organisms in a variety of waters. He made a copy of Leeunwenhoek's microscope and used it to confirm other observations reported by him.

47. History Of Horticulture - Hooke, Robert 1634-1703 A brief history of major figures in the history of horticulture developed froman outline that was distributed to students in Ohio State University http://hcs.osu.edu/hort/history/104.html

Hooke, Robert 1634-1703 H ooke was an English experimental physicist, but his versatility led him into several fields. He was the first to state clearly that the motion of heavenly bodies must be regarded as a mathematical problem and he approached in a remarkable manner the discovery of universal gravitation. He conferred the name "cell" on the units of plant structure. This has been retained although used in a sense different from what Hooke intended. He used a "magnifying glass to examine everything he could lay his hands on," and wrote a large book called Micrographia (1665). He first recognized that charcoal, cork, and plant tissues were "all perforated and porous, much like a honeycomb." To these pores he gave the name cells but the cell walls were not considered constituent parts of the cells. He stated "for in several of these vegetables whilst green, I have with my microscope plainly enough discovered these cells filled with juices, and by degrees sweating them out." He was interested in "slicing up indiscriminately animal and plant tissues and studying their structures with the aid of his new toy." Hooke had a strong temper and made virulent attacks on Newton and other scientists claiming that their published work was due to him.

Return to The Worlds of David Darling INDEX LATEST NEWS ARCHIVE ... Z entire Web this site Hooke, Robert (1635-1703) An extraordinarily prolific English physicist, mathematician, and inventor. Considered the greatest mechanic of his age, he made many improvements in astronomical instruments and clocks, was the first to formulate the theory of planetary movements as a mechanical problem, explored the behavior of elastic materials, and coin the term "cell" in biology. He devised a practicable system of telegraphy, invented the spiral spring in watches, and constructed an early arithmetical machine. He also to built the first Gregorian telescope , observed that Jupiter revolves on its axis, and made drawings of Mars from which its period of rotation was later found. In 1672 Hooke attempted to prove that the Earth moves in an ellipse round the Sun and six years later proposed an inverse square law of gravitation to explain planetary motions. Hooke wrote to Newton in 1679 asking for his opinion: ...of compounding the celestiall motions of the planetts of a direct motion by the tangent (inertial motion) and an attractive motion towards the centrall body ... my supposition is that the Attraction always is in a duplicate proportion to the Distance from the Center Reciprocall...

Robert Hooke Durante toda a Idade Média, a explicação usual do Universo baseava-se nas teorias aristatélicas, segundo as quais a Terra ocuparia o seu centro, envolvida, como uma cebola, por esferas concêntricas, de raios crescentes. A última esfera era chamada Primum Mobile (Primeiro Motor), a morada dos deuses. Estes emprestavam-lhe movimento, cabendo ao Primeiro Motor, por sua vez, impelir a esfera interior seguinte, que moveria a outra, e assim por diante, até resultar no movimento dos corpos terrestres Já que a Terra permaneceria fixa no centro do Universo). A persistência de certezas assim tão gratuitas pode hoje parecer chocante. Com efeito, mais de um milênio se passara sem que o Ocidente trouxesse contribuição fundamental para o conhecimento do Universo. As próprias limitações econômicas do mundo medieval podem explicá-lo. Uma sociedade predominantemente rural e ainda bastante fechada sobre si própria não podia estimular os grandes raciocínios revolucionários e as grandes dúvidas. Mas, primeiro, as Cruzadas e, mais tarde, o Renascimento haviam aberto as portas do Ocidente para o resto do mundo. Ressurgiram o grande comércio e as manufaturas, que sempre têm fornecido a base econômica para o esforço científico. Como explicar que, depois de tudo isto, homens de ciência parecessem levar a sério o Primeiro Motor, do qual não liàvia prova alguma, e se contentassem com essas explicações quase mitológicas?

This is the draft of a short biography of the 17th-century natural philosopher Robert Hooke. The full version will be appearing in the Encyclopedia of Life Sciences (ELS) , a huge electronic and print project published by Macmillan. For information on the online version Embryonic ELS , click here. Back to my home page. ROBERT HOOKE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF LIFE SCIENCES Hooke, Robert Biographies Keywords: Microscope; scientific instruments; mechanical philosophy; respiration; cell J Sutton Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia Hooke, Robert English instrument-maker, experimentalist, and natural philosopher who made key contributions in a wide range of areas including physiology, geology, and mechanics. Born on the Isle of Wight, Hooke showed early aptitude with the design of mechanical toys. At Westminster School he learnt mathematics and geometry, and at Christ Church, Oxford, he joined a remarkable group of natural philosophers working before the Restoration on physiological and physical topics (Frank 1980). Much of Hooke’s career was driven by financial uncertainty. As an employee, working firstly with Robert Boyle and then as curator of experiments at the new Royal Society from 1662 to 1677, Hooke’s status as a professional in a society of gentlemen natural philosophers was problematic. He was continually concerned to establish his credibility, and his defences of ownership of his ideas were often vitriolic.
