Although the work was published in 1723 it was not accepted in Catholic Italy until 1749. Gravesande was a Dutch philosophe and mathematician member of the Royal Society of London and laid down the foundations for teaching physics. He was the most influential exponent of Newtonian science outside England. This work is an abridged viersion of his "Physices Elemnta Mathematica" and is the first textbook of Newtonian Physics. ex Typographia Remondini hardcover books
1728RW1451London:: John Senex 1728. 1728. 8vo. iv 187 1 pp. 4 folding plates decorative headpieces. Original gilt-stamped calf modern red leather gilt-stamped spine label raised bands; rubbed joints cracked upper spine mended. Ownership stamp of "P.G." Very good. Rare. First edition in English; first printed in Leiden in 1727 as Matheseos universalis elementa. "This work translated into Dutch 1728 and English 1752 sic is of didactic rather than original merit but it was significant for its invitation to mathematicians to elucidate systematically Newton's Universal Arithmetick which 'sGravesande exemplified by his own explanation of two passages from Newton's book. 'sGravesande found the lighthearted treatment of infinitesimals and the infinite in Bernard de Fontenelle's Elemens de la geometrie de l'infini Paris 1727 unacceptable and he maintained his objections in the Journal litteraire against Fontenelle's rejoinder 1730." – DSB V p. 510.

It also describes Loyola's great humility living amongst the poor. Gretser's Apologia is a massive defence of the great saint filled with reference to other great saints including early Orthodox fathers such as Gregory of Nazianzenus Latin fathers like St. Augustine and Jerome as well as English Catholic martyrs killed during Henry VIII's Reformation. Gretser himself then as now was/is regarded as one of the most prominent Jesuit theologians. "He was recognized as one of the best controversialists of his time and was highly esteemed by Pope Clement VIII Emperor Ferdinand II and Maximilian I of Bavaria. Some of the greatest of his age such as Cardinal Bellarmine and Marcus Welser corresponded with him and consulted him in their difficulties." Wiki.
