	Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is in the Principia that Newton expressed his famous Hypotheses non fingo ("I feign no hypotheses").
		Descartes' book of 1644 Principia philosophiae (Principles of philosophy) stated that bodies can act on each other only through contact: a principle that induced people, among them himself, to hypothesize a universal medium as the carrier of interactions such as light and gravity—the aether.
		It was perhaps the force of the Principia, which explained so many different things about the natural world with such economy, that caused this method to become synonymous with physics, even as it is practised almost three and a half centuries after his beginning.

	Principia Mathematica - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Principia Mathematica is a 3-volume work on the foundations of mathematics, written by Alfred North Whitehead and Bertrand Russell and published in 1910–1913.
		These were avoided in the Principia by building an elaborate system of types: a set has a higher type than its elements and one can not speak of the "set of all sets" and similar constructs which lead to paradoxes (see Russell's paradox).

		Isaac Newton (1642-1727) is considered to be one of the most influential scientists to have ever lived.
		The Principia combined the ideas of Copernicus, Galileo and Kepler into a single theory which explained the underlying universal laws of the cosmos in mathematical terms.
		The Principia was first published in London in 1687.

		The Principia laid the foundations of modern differential and integral calculus as well as the theories of optics and gravitation.
		In it are contained Newton's three laws of motion and his law of universal gravitation which he used to predict precisely the motions of stars, and the planets around the sun.
		Newton was an important part of what some have termed the "Scientific Revolution" in which older scientific theories based on the works of clasical authors like Aristotle, Plato, or indeed the Bible, were replaced by new ideas that changed how people viewed the very nature of the Universe and how it worked.

		En 1687, y a instancias de su amigo Edmond Halley, Isaac Newton publicó sus descubrimientos en física y cálculo matemático en una obra que tituló "Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica" ("Principios matemáticos de la Filosofía Natural").
		Tuvo además la gran intuición de generalizar esta ley a todos los cuerpos del universo, con lo que esta ecuación se convertió en la ley de gravitación universal.

		In 1992, the Catholic Church reopened the case, issuing a retroactive sentence of not guilty and saying that the original judges had not properly separated issues of faith from facts of science.
		Now in the year of 1687, Newton wrote a book: Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica – it would come to be a part of the old testament of physics.
		And in Principia and Opticks did Newton deliver the laws of physics not in two books but on two slab blocks – not on paper but in stone.

		Perhaps the most important finding Newton describes in the Principia is the formulation of a law of universal gravitation.
		If they ultimately prove to be accurate, scientists will have gained a powerful new framework for describing the motion of objects and the forces that cause it.
		In many previous cases where an important body of knowledge is first discovered, there has followed a rapid period of intellectual advancement in that field.
