Everyone knows what Charles Darwin said. Almost everyone is wrong. He did not discover that species change; his own grandfather had written verse about that. He did not say we descended from monkeys, and he was careful not to. What he did was stranger and far more dangerous: he removed foresight from the explanation of complexity.

This book follows that idea from a Shropshire garden to the inside of a machine.

In the winter of 1604, a man with ruined eyesight and crippled hands sat in a rented room in Prague, comparing a column of numbers against a curve he had drawn by hand, and found that the two disagreed by an amount roughly equal to the width of a coin seen from across a wide room. Everyone he knew would have called that agreement. He called it a problem, and spent the next five years destroying the most beautiful idea he had ever had in order to fix it. Johannes Kepler has been reduced, in most retellings, to three tidy statements in a physics textbook.
