I think that it would be intellectually rewarding to study math and science by reading the classics. You would get firsthand information. When I took physics in college, I noticed that the ideas of my physics textbook came from Newton, Pascal, Bernoulli, Torricelli, Archimedes, Robert Boyle, Niels Bohr, Faraday, Einstein, and so on.
