Essays on The Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy

Introduction Calculus stands as a cornerstone in the realm of mathematics, a discipline shaped by the contributions of brilliant minds from diverse corners of the world. Among the plethora of luminaries, Sir Isaac Newton and Wilhelm Von Leibniz emerge as the principal architects of this mathematical framework. Their seminal work not only addressed specific problems related to tangents and areas but also provided a unified approach, setting the foundation for the evolution of calculus.

L Buffon was the foremost specialist and he had the ability to produce a multivolume 'Nature of the Earth.…

Newton was known as a natural philosopher during his life but his theories of motion, gravity, light, etc formed the cornerstone of what would become known as physics. He probably contributed more to the science than any single person before or after him. Newton's 1687 publication of the Principia is considered to be among the most influential books in the history of science, laying the groundwork for most of classical mechanics. In this work, Newton described universal gravitation and the…
