Robert Hooke folio goes online

Royal Society, ‘Exploring our archives’: Life after Hooke

The Hooke folio is now online and searchable at http://webapps.qmul.ac.uk/cell/Hooke/Hooke.html while the visually stunning ‘turning the pages’ can be found at http://www.royalsoc.ac.uk/library/HookeTTP/hooke_broadband.htm.

Utterly awesome. Think Indiana Jones’s dad’s notebook, but with actual science. I’m so glad we managed to keep this folio in the UK.
