Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book provides a reading of Newton's argument for universal gravity that is focused on the evidence-based, "experimental" reasoning that Newton associates with his program of experimental philosophy. It highlights the richness and complexity of the Principia and also draws important lessons about how to situate Newton in his natural philosophical context. The book has two primary objectives. First, it defends a novel interpretation of the third of Newton's four Rules for the Study of Natural Philosophy-what the author terms the Two-Set Reading of Rule 3. Second, it argues that this novel interpretation of Rule 3 sheds additional light on the differences between Newton's experimental philosophy and Descartes's "hypothetical philosophy," and that it also illuminates how the practice of experimental philosophy allowed Newton to make a universal force of gravity the centerpiece of his explanation of the system of the world. Newton's Third Rule and the Experimental Argument for Universal Gravity will be of interest to researchers and advanced students working on Newton's natural philosophy, early modern philosophy, and the history of science"--

This book was released on 2003 with total page 621 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Newton's Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica provides a coherent and deductive presentation of his discovery of the universal law of gravitation. It is very much more than a demonstration that 'to us it is enough that gravity really does exist and act according to the laws which wehave explained and abundantly serves to account for all the motions of the celestial bodies and the sea'. It is important to us as a model of all mathematical physics.Representing a decade's work from a distinguished physicist, this is the first comprehensive analysis of Newton's Principia without recourse to secondary sources. Professor Chandrasekhar analyses some 150 propositions which form a direct chain leading to Newton's formulation of his universal law ofgravitation. In each case, Newton's proofs are arranged in a linear sequence of equations and arguments, avoiding the need to unravel the necessarily convoluted style of Newton's connected prose. In almost every case, a modern version of the proofs is given to bring into sharp focus the beauty,clarity, and breath-taking economy of Newton's methods.Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar is one of the most reknowned scientists of the twentieth century, whose career spanned over 60 years. Born in India, educated at the University of Cambridge in England, he served as Emeritus Morton D. Hull Distinguished Service Professor of Theoretical Astrophysics at theUniversity of Chicago, where he has was based from 1937 until his death in 1996. His early research into the evolution of stars is now a cornerstone of modern astrophysics, and earned him the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1983. Later work into gravitational interactions between stars, the properties offluids, magnetic fields, equilibrium ellipsoids, and black holes has earned him awards throughout the world, including the Gold Medal from the Royal Astronomical Society in London (1953), the National Medal of Science in the United States (1966), and the Copley Medal from the Royal Society (1984).His many publications include Radiative transfer (1950), Hydrodynamic and hydromagnetic stability (1961), and The mathematical theory of black holes (1983), each being praised for its breadth and clarity. Newton's Principia for the common reader is the result of Professor Chandrasekhar's profoundadmiration for a scientist whose work he believed is unsurpassed, and unsurpassable.

Excerpt: ...Thus, it is diminished through 135 and increased through 45, and is therefore more diminished than increased in a half revolution; and the same effect precisely will be produced in the next half revolution. It is therefore perpetually less and less at every succeeding appulse of the body to the node. And by a similar reasoning it will appear that the same is true, so long as the nodes are between A and C, and B and D. When the nodes are in the octants before quadratures, it may be proved, in like manner, that the inclination will be increased through 135 of P's semi-revolution, and diminished through 45; and therefore it will be, on the whole, more increased than diminished; and the inclination will be greater and greater at each appulse of the body to the node. And the same is true, so long as the nodes are between B and C, and A and J). Therefore, while the node moves from A to C, the inclination of the orbit is perpetually diminished. It is least when the line of nodes is in quadrature. After that point it increases perpetually while the node moves from C to B, and is greatest when the node is in syzygy, increasing by the same degrees as those by which it had diminished, and returning to its original magnitude. In the case of the moon, we find (Airy, L. T. Art. 68, ) that if 7 be the longitude of the node, /3 the longitude of the sun, the tangent of the inclination of the orbit is, f 3m, nx kl+---cos. 2 (7-/3); o which is greatest when y-f& = 0 or = 180, that is, when the nodes are in syzygy; and least when y-/3 = 90 or = 270, that is, when the nodes are in quadrature.
