Second Jesuit edition emended and corrected based on the text of the third London edition of the Principia. This version is valued for its excellent annotations and copious commentary which is nearly the same length as the Principia itself. It contains Newton's Dedication to the Royal Society; Prefaces to the first second and third editions and Roger Cotes's Preface. In addition the Jesuits' edition of the Principia is prized for the inclusion of the important treatises on the theory of the tides: Daniel Bernoulli's Traite sur le Flux et Reflux de la Mer Colin MacLaurin's De Causa Physica Fluxus et Refluxus Maris and Leonardo Euler's Inquisitio Physica in causam Fluxus ac Refluxus Maris. These three works gained the prize given by the Royal Academy of Sciences in 1724 for resolving tidal problems relating to the theory of gravity. They represent the most significant discovery concerning tidal mechanics between the publication of the Principia and the discoveries of Laplace. REFERENCES: Babson 31; Gray 14; Wallis 14.

Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica

17262210London: Guil. & Joh. Innys Regiae Societatis typographos 1726. Third Edition. contemporary full vellum. RARE 1726 THIRD EDITION OF NEWTON'S PRINCIPIA THE LAST EDITION EDITED BY NEWTON AND THE BASIS FOR ALL SUBSEQUENT EDITIONS. ONE OF ONLY 1250 COPIES PRINTED. "The Principia is generally described as the greatest work in the history of science. Copernicus Galileo and Kepler had certainly shown the way; but where they described the phenomena they observed Newton explained the underlying universal laws. The Principia provided the great synthesis of the cosmos proving finally its physical unity. Newton showed that the important and dramatic aspects of nature that were subject to the universal law of gravitation could be explained in mathematical terms within a single physical theory. With him the separation of natural and supernatural of sublunar and superlunar worlds disappeared. The same laws of gravitation and motion rule everywhere; for the first time a single mathematical law could explain the motion of objects on earth as well as the phenomena of the heavens. The whole cosmos is composed of inter-connecting parts influencing each other according to these laws. It was this grand conception that produced a general revolution in human thought equalled perhaps only by that following Darwin's Origin of Species. It was the final irrevocable break with a medieval conception based on Greek and Roman cosmology and a scholastic system derived from the medieval interpretation of Aristotle. Newton's universe almost independent of the spiritual order ushered in the age of rationalism scientific determinism and the acceptance of a mechanistic view of nature" Printing and the Mind of Man 161. On the history and importance of the third edition: Towards the end of his life Newton "gave one last effort to the Principia. It is clear that he regarded the Principia rather than the Opticks as his masterwork. He worked over the Principia without end to hone its language to a perfect expression of his ideas. Perhaps the appearance of a reprint of the second edition in Amsterdam in 1723 stimulated Newton to put his plan for a new edition into action. Perhaps a serious illness in 1722 reminded him that he could not delay forever. We know only that printing of an edition more sumptuous than either of the others began in the fall of 1723. As editor Newton had the services of a young member of the Royal Society Henry Pemberton. In the fall of 1723 Pemberton addressed to him the first of thirty-one communications which stretched over the following two-and-a-half years while the edition passed through the press. Through 1724 and 1725 the edition made its slow but steady progress toward completion with none of the delays that stopped the press during the second edition. Newton dated the preface 12 January 1726. It was the last day of March when Martin Folkes presented a copy 'richly Bound in morocco Leather' to the Royal Society in Newton's name. In all 1250 copies were printed." Westfall The Life of Isaac Newton. The third edition "contains a new preface by Newton and a large number of alterations" Babson 13. With portrait engraving by Vertue bound before first text leaf and numerous illustrations in text. Complete with the privilege leaf half-title dedication leaf index and ad leaf. London: Guil. & Joh. Innys Regiae Societatis typographos 1726. Quarto 186x241 mm contemporary full Dutch vellum; custom half-leather box. Unidentified early signatures on front pastedown half-title and ad leaf verso. Mild scuffing to binding boards a little bowed. Text with occasional light soiling and scattered foxing but generally clean. A beautiful copy. SCARCE IN AN UNRESTORED CONTEMPORARY BINDING.
