The Principia: The Authoritative Translation and Guide by Isaac Newton is a deluxe hardcover edition that presents the fundamental principles of natural philosophy in mathematical terms. This modern translation by I. Bernard Cohen and Anne Whitman is based on the 1726 edition approved by Newton and includes extracts from earlier editions. The book covers acceleration, deceleration, and inertial movement; fluid dynamics; and the motions of celestial bodies like the earth, moon, planets, and comets. With a beautiful dust jacket and faux leather binding, this edition is a valuable resource for scientists, scholars, and students interested in the history and philosophy of mechanics and mathematics.
