Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A New Theory of Gravitation, and Other Subjects
The views set forth in the following pages have occurred to me in my state of total blind ness, when in my hours of enforced idleness, I have re?ected on many subjects with which my mind is somewhat familiar.
It may seem egotistical in me to differ from the great scientific minds of the age, but I have long thought that the subject of Gravitation, as it is generally received, is inaccurate, and that the tending of bodies to the centre is due to a different cause than the one usually assigned.
