This period spans the time from the contributions of Newton to those of Einstein. There are some pretty thick textbooks on the history of physics across the period asked about. That's a lot of time. And particularly when we see the calculus first appear and the beginning of the "real science" of modern physics to the sweeping aside of classic physics (Newton's ideas) in favor of the new Einstein-inspired quantum mechanics. How can you sum it up in a couple of dozen sentences? Can't be done. The next best thing is to read the history of physics for this period in the Wikipedia article on - wait for it! - the history of physics. You can plug in at Newton (ubergenius) and read right up through Big Al Einstein, whose work shredded classical physics and brought us to the brink of the ultimate nature of reality. Need a link? You got it. Get something nice to sip on and curl up for 20 minutes or so with this one. It will bring into perspective some things you already know and will tie them together in ways that might let you peek into the world of the physicist. All the modern things we work and entertain ourselves with were developed by standing on the shoulders of the men who worked through this period to push back ignorance and illuminate the underlying nature of the world around us. Your link follows. No, you won't be Rickrolled. Promise.*Civil War*
