Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is the first edition of Sir Isaac Newtonâs seminal work on the laws of motion and universal gravitation. It revolutionized scientific thought and laid the foundation for classical mechanics. The Principia explores the motion of bodies under the influence of gravity, providing a mathematical framework that has been the basis of physics for centuries. It also includes Newton's three laws of motion, which describe the behavior of objects in response to forces acting on them. The Principia had a profound impact on scientific thought and ushered in a new era characterized by mathematical and experimental approaches to understanding the natural world. This first edition, published in 1687, is a cornerstone of scientific literature and continues to be admired for its groundbreaking insights into the laws of nature.
