Principia Isaac Newton

Original Illustrated Latin Edition.

Sir Isaac Newton's Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy in his original Latin text. A high quality paperback edition filled with the excellent original drawings.

In formulating his physical theories, Newton developed and used mathematical methods now included in the field of calculus. But the language of calculus as we know it was largely absent from the Principia; Newton gave many of his proofs in a geometric form of infinitesimal calculus, based on limits of ratios of vanishing small geometric quantities.
