Descriere

Presents Newton's Principia not only to modern scholars of history of science, but also to nonspecialist undergraduate students of humanities. This title moves from Newton's definitions and axioms through the essential propositions, as Newton himself identified them, to the establishment of universal gravitation and elliptical orbits.
