The Principia. Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy (Concise edition) Paperback / softback

Part of the Foundations series

Paperback / softback

Description

New concise edition with a new introduction, abridged for the modern reader.

The Principia. Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy is one of the most important scientific works ever to have been written and has had a profound impact on modern science.

Consisting of three separate books, the Principia states Newton's laws of motion and Newton's law of universal gravitation.

Understanding and acceptance of these theories was not immediate, however by the end of the seventeenth century no one could deny that Newton had far exceeded all previous works and revolutionised scientific thinking. The FLAME TREE Foundations series features core publications which together have shaped the cultural landscape of the modern world, with cutting-edge research distilled into pocket guides designed to be both accessible and informative.
