About this book
Henry Pemberton published this account in 1728 for people unused to mathematical reasoning, who wanted some idea of what Newton had worked out. He says he drew it up many years earlier at the desire of friends, who urged him to publish it after he had looked after the recent edition of the Principia, and that he kept technical terms few and defined those he needed. The book is dedicated to Sir Robert Walpole. Its subject is Newton's natural philosophy as understood in the years just after his death.
