{"product_id":"the-mathematical-principles-of-natural-isaac-newton-9781107020658","title":"The Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy","description":"Newton's Principia is perhaps the second most famous work of mathematics, after Euclid's Elements. Originally published in 1687, it gave the first systematic account of the fundamental concepts of dynamics, as well as three beautiful derivations of Newton's law of gravitation from Kepler's laws of planetary motion. As a book of great insight and ingenuity, it has raised our understanding of the power of mathematics more than any other work. This heavily annotated translation of the third and final edition (1726) of the Principia will enable any reader with a good understanding of elementary mathematics to easily grasp the meaning of the text, either from the translation itself or from the notes, and to appreciate some of its significance. All forward references are given to illuminate the structure and unity of the whole, and to clarify the parts. The mathematical prerequisites for understanding Newton's arguments are given in a brief appendix.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Isaac Newton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1107020654\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781107020658\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/04\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 790\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.10h x 8.50w x 1.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2022","brand":"Isaac Newton","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45476617847039,"sku":"9781107020658","price":290.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dfb81761-edf8-43b5-aa9c-e226cb0c2705.jpg?v=1715910248","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-mathematical-principles-of-natural-isaac-newton-9781107020658","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
