WHY HAVE I NEVER HEARD OF THIS GAME BEFORE??

From the site:

“In The New Science, you play the role of one of the great scientists from the scientific revolution in 17th century Europe. You are attempting to publish your remarkable scientific discoveries in order to gain prestige, be seen as the finest mind of your era, and consequently be appointed the first President of the Royal Society.”

And which great scientists can you play as?

(And a dorkfest of friends to play it with.)
