Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica
Isaacus Newtonus philosophiam naturalem more mathematico tractat, principia geometrica ad motus et vires corporum applicans. Mechanicam rationalem a practica distinguit, geometriam ipsam fundamentum esse docens quo naturae leges accurate mensurentur ac demonstrentur.
