Pagera Editor's Note
Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica, Isaac Newton's treatise on the mathematical principles of natural philosophy, was first published in London in 1687. This record gives the original Latin text of that first edition. After a set of definitions and the three laws of motion, the work unfolds in three books. Book I treats the motion of bodies under various forces, Book II deals with motion in resisting media such as fluids, and Book III, on the system of the world, applies these results to the planets, their moons, comets and the tides through the law of universal gravitation.
