The Principia

Book • 2010
Published in 1687, 'Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica' is a comprehensive treatise that establishes the principles of modern physics.

The book is divided into three main sections and includes preliminary chapters on definitions and axioms.

It introduces Newton's three laws of motion and the law of universal gravitation, explaining phenomena such as the motion of bodies, fluid dynamics, and the behavior of celestial bodies like planets and comets.

The work also includes discussions on hydrostatics, hydrodynamics, and acoustics, and it systematizes a method for studying nature through mathematical means.

Newton revised and expanded the work in subsequent editions published in 1713 and 1726.
