Product Description

I read a recent article in the New York Times about Isaac Newton's "Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica," published in London in 1687, saying that "it had a reputation for unreadability." And that it was written in Latin immediately stoked my curiosity. I went to Amazon and bought a copy of the original facsimile text in Latin and an "authoritative" English translation by a Harvard Professor of the History of Science, I. Bernard Cohen.

The third book in "Principia" really piqued my interest: the gravitational forces between the sun and planets!!! This work is in six movements.

1. Regula III

2. Propositio VI

3. Propositio XVII

4. Propositio XXIV

5. Lemma IV

6. Scholium generale
