Excerpt from An Essay on the Mathematical Principles of Physics: With Reference To; The Study The contents of this work are devoted almost exclusively to discussing the principles and the reasoning appropriate to the theoretical department of Natural Philosophy, and the mutual relation between this and the experimental department. The discoveries in recent times of new facts and physical laws by experimental means have been so remarkable and abundant, and have given rise to so much speculation, that there seemed to be reason to apprehend that the part of philosophy which is properly theoretical might be either set aside or wholly misunderstood. The purpose of this Essay is to endeavour to counteract this tendency. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from An Essay on the Mathematical Principles of Physics: With Reference To; The Study With the view of assisting to form a judgment on its essential character, and on the necessity arising therefrom for adopting it, I propose to make in this Introduction some brief remarks on the antecedent history and actual state of the theoretical department of Physics. All theoretical investigation is carried on by means of calculation, and the calculation is not simply algebraic, but consists essentially of the formation, according to given conditions, of differential equations, and the solutions of them by the rules of analysis. Newton is therefore to be regarded as the founder of theoretical philosophy, having in his Principia, by reasoning of which there had been no previous example, virtually formed and solved the differential equations which are necessary for calculating the motions of the Moon, the Earth, and the Planets with their satellites. And because these calculations rested on the hypothesis of an attractive force varying with distance according to the law of the inverse square, the motions, by being thus calculated, were referred to an operative cause.
