Sir Isaac Newton's Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy and His System of the World is a groundbreaking work in the field of physics and mathematics. First published in 1687, it lays out the laws of motion and gravity that govern the behavior of objects in the universe. The book is divided into three parts: the first deals with the laws of motion, the second with the principles of mechanics, and the third with the phenomena of the heavens. Newton's work revolutionized the field of physics and set the stage for the development of modern science. His laws of motion and gravity are still used today to explain the behavior of objects in the universe. The book is written in a clear and concise style, making it accessible to both scientists and laypeople alike. This edition of the book includes a preface by the author, as well as a detailed introduction by a modern scholar. It also includes numerous diagrams and illustrations to help readers understand the complex concepts presented in the text. Overall, Sir Isaac Newton's Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy and His System of the World is an essential work for anyone interested in the history of science or the foundations of modern physics.1686. Translated into English by Andrew Motte in 1729, this book is a complete volume of Newton's mathematical principles relating to natural philosophy and his system of the world. Newton, one of the most brilliant scientists and thinkers of all time, presents his theories, formulas and thoughts. Included are chapters relative to the motion of bodies; motion of bodies in resisting mediums; and system of the world in mathematical treatment; a section on axioms or laws of motion, and definitions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
