Publisher's Synopsis

A Treatise Of The System Of The World is a book written by the renowned physicist and mathematician, Sir Isaac Newton, and was first published in 1728. This book is a comprehensive study of the laws of motion and the mechanics of the universe, including the principles of gravitation and the movements of the planets. The book is divided into three parts. The first part deals with the laws of motion and the principles of mechanics, including the famous three laws of motion that Newton developed. The second part of the book discusses the theory of gravitation and the movements of the planets, including the explanation of the elliptical orbits of the planets around the sun. The third and final part of the book discusses the mechanics of the universe as a whole, including the concept of space and time and the nature of light.Newton's Treatise Of The System Of The World is considered one of the most important works in the history of science and is still widely studied and referenced today. It was a groundbreaking work that laid the foundation for modern physics and astronomy, and helped to establish Newton as one of the greatest scientific minds of all time. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of science, physics, and astronomy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
