Format: Dead tree, e-book. The printed book is a freaking 30 very thick volumes. Most people are going E-book. Some of the more prestigious universities have sprung for the printed work, Trinity College of Oxford was first in line. The Royal Society was second. Both consider Newton "Their boy". Even at $20,000.00 each. Neither was able to get the whole collection at the 1936 sale.
Content: The notes of Sir Issac Newton For various reasons, Viscount Lymington offered the Portsmouth Papers for sale in the summer of 1936 - an event which broke up the archive but finally revealed the full extent of Newton’s interests in alchemy and unorthodox theology.
They're presented chronologically. A latter work is planned divided by subject. This work is presented to that end. Experts need to read the notes and provide feedback on what goes with what.
Content wanders from The science Newton is known for, to musings on the philosopher's stone, heretical thoughts as seen by the Church of England, and things we did not know Newton was even interested in.
At ten million words it will be some years before any productive content is seen. There is a lot to wade through.
==Reaction==
Most people just took a step back. The work is HUGE. And as presented it is near impenetrable. However this is the first time the notes can be found in one place since the auction in 1936.
