6. Behind Alexander’s armies he sent a wave of
Hellenistic civilization across the world in order
to accomplish his goal of uniting mankind
through philosophy. He set up huge libraries and
centers of learning in order to facilitate the
process history calls “Hellenizing” the world.

8. Einstein was one of the fathers
of the atomic age. He was one of the
greatest scientists of all time.
9. He became famous for the theory of relativity, which
laid the basis for the release of atomic energy.
10. He established law of mass- energy
equivalence; through his famous formula
(energy equals mass times the velocity of light squared)
and became the foundation stone in the
development of atomic energy.

13. Newton devised his
theory of gravity after
witnessing an apple
falling from a tree in
his mother's garden in
Lincolnshire.
14. After seeing how apples always
fall straight to the ground, he spent
several years working on the
mathematics showing that the
force of gravity decreased
as the inverse square of the distance.

16. Newton came to calculus as part of his
investigations in physics and geometry.
He viewed calculus as the scientific
description of the generation of motion
and magnitudes.
Alexander grew up hating Persia as an enemy of Freedom. Therefore, two years after his father died, Alexander proclaimed himself the champion of Greek democracy against Persian tyranny, and he invaded Persia.
One of the largest centers of philosophy was in his namesake, Alexandria, Egypt. Other major centers were in Athens, Antioch, Rome, and Smyrna. As you will see, his impact on what would become known as “Western civilization” cannot be overstated. For that reason he is the First Pillar of Western Civilization.
although there is no evidence to suggest that it hit him on the head.
After dinner, the weather being warm, we went into the garden & drank tea under the shade of some apple tree; only he & myself," Stukeley wrote in the meticulously handwritten manuscript released by the Royal Society."Amid other discourse, he told me, he was just in the same situation, as when formerly the notion of gravitation came into his mind. Why sh[oul]d that apple always descend perpendicularly to the ground, thought he to himself; occasion'd by the fall of an apple, as he sat in contemplative mood."Why should it not go sideways, or upwards? But constantly to the Earth's centre? Assuredly the reason is, that the Earth draws it. There must be a drawing power in matter. And the sum of the drawing power in the matter of the Earth must be in the Earth's centre, not in any side of the Earth.
In comparison, Leibniz focused on the tangent problem and came to believe that calculus was a metaphysical explanation of change. Importantly, the core of their insight was the formalization of the inverse properties between the integral and the differential of a function.
