Book excerpt: Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy: Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica by Isaac Newton and translated into English by Andrew Motte, added to Newton's System of The World. Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica (Latin for Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy), often referred to as simply the Principia, is a work in three books by Isaac Newton, in Latin, first published 5 July 1687. After annotating and correcting his personal copy of the first edition, Newton published two further editions, in 1713 and 1726. The Principia states Newton's laws of motion, forming the foundation of classical mechanics; Newton's law of universal gravitation; and a derivation of Kepler's laws of planetary motion (which Kepler first obtained empirically). SINCE the ancients (as we are told by Pappus), made great account of the science of mechanics in the investigation of natural things : and the moderns, laying aside substantial forms and occult qualities, have endeavoured to subject the phenomena of nature to the laws of mathematics, I have in this treatise cultivated mathematics so far as it regards philosophy. The ancients considered mechanics in a twofold respect ; as rational, which proceeds accurately by demonstration ; and practical. To practical mechanics all the manual arts belong, from which mechanics took its name. But as artificers do not work with perfect accuracy, it comes to pass that mechanics is so distinguished from geometry, that what is perfectly accurate is called geometrical , what is less so, is called mechanical.

But the errors are not in the art, but in the artificers. He that works with less accuracy is an imperfect mechanic ; and if any could work with perfect accuracy, he would be the most perfect mechanic of all ; for the description if right lines and circles, upon which geometry is founded, belongs to mechanics. Geometry does not teach us to draw these lines, but requires them to be drawn ; for it requires that the learner should first be taught to describe these accurately, before he enters upon geometry ; then it shows how by these operations problems may be solved. To describe right lines and circles are problems, but not geometrical problems.Copy of original is presented as is. No claim can be made as to accuracy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Principles of Natural Philosophy Natural philosophy is the study of nature, or the universe. Experience shows that all effects are preceded by causes, and under identical circumstances all changes are always effected in the same manner. Nature is in a continual state of flux, this flux consisting of a ceaseless interchange of energy between its various parts, but its action is always uniform and unique. It is this invariableness and uniformity which renders possible a philosophy of nature. The investigation of the manner or laws under which changes take place is comprised under such names as Physics, Dynamics, Mechanics, or Natural Philosophy, but since in this book we shall not confine ourselves merely to the investigation of such processes, but shall consider ourselves free to speculate upon them, insofar as that is possible, the latter term is preferable. It was used by Newton in this sense. The ultimate, or primordial causes of nature must ever remain unknown to us, since the infinite cannot be grasped by finite minds, but a certain proximate region has been explored and it is to the credit of mankind that its borders are being continually extended. No important result can ever be achieved without serious and concentrated thought and close and careful reasoning. Such a method, in any of its forms, constitutes mathematics, and any man who reasons carefully and accurately is a mathematician. The theory of changes was called by Newton, its discoverer, Fluxions, symbolizing thereby the fluxions of nature. It is now known as The Calculus, and it is only decent that every man with more than a rudimentary education should know the calculus and thereby something of the universe in which he lives.

Book excerpt: The present book is a natural outgrowth of RescherOCOs longstanding preoccupation with the rational systematization of our knowledge as manifested in such earlier works as Cognitive Systematization (Oxford: Blackwell, 1979), and Complexity (New Brunswick: Transaction Publishers, 1998). Accordingly, the role of principles in human affairs is crucial and ubiquitous. Principology, the theory of principlesOCounderdeveloped through it may beOCois accordingly bound to find a significant place in the sphere of philosophical inquiry regarding matters of thought and action."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: D. Pole, whose Later Philosophy of Wittgenstein appeared in 1958, here makes a new attack on the problem of value-judgement by taking it out of its limited ethical context. Beginning with an examination and criticism of current views that base all moral and other principles on personal choice or decision, he finds a point of departure for his own account of the problem in the claim that rational inquiry of any sort rests on the possibility of evaluation. The place of the one process within the other is then worked out in some detail; and an attempt is made to show how inquiry, as a collective undertaking, involves the progressive search for and establishment of new principles.

Book excerpt: Basics of PhilosophyBasics of Philosophy For beginnersAt its simplest, philosophy (from the Greek phílosophía or phílosophía, meaning 'the love of wisdom') is the study of knowledge, or "thinking about thinking", although the breadth of what it covers is perhaps best illustrated by a selection of other alternative definitions: the discipline concerned with questions of how one should live (ethics); what sorts of things exist and what are their essential natures (metaphysics); what counts as genuine knowledge (epistemology); and what are the correct principles of reasoning (logic) (Wikipedia)investigation of the nature, causes, or principles of reality, knowledge, or values, based on logical reasoning rather than empirical methods (American Heritage Dictionary)the study of the ultimate nature of existence, reality, knowledge and goodness, as discoverable by human reasoning (Penguin English Dictionary)the rational investigation of questions about existence and knowledge and ethics (WordNet)the search for knowledge and truth, especially about the nature of man and his behavior and beliefs (Kernerman English Multilingual Dictionary)the rational and critical inquiry into basic principles (Microsoft Encarta Encyclopedia)the study of the most general and abstract features of the world and categories with which we think: mind, matter, reason, proof, truth, etc. (Oxford Dictionary of Philosophy)careful thought about the fundamental nature of the world, the grounds for human knowledge, and the evaluation of human conduct (The Philosophy Pages)As used originally by the ancient Greeks, the term "philosophy" meant the pursuit of knowledge for its own sake, and comprised ALL areas of speculative thought, including the arts, sciences and religion.Philosophical questions (unlike those of the sciences) are usually foundational and abstract in nature. Philosophy is done primarily through reflection and does not tend to rely on experiment, although the methods used to study it may be analogous to those used in the study of the natural sciences.In common usage, it sometimes carries the sense of unproductive or frivolous musings, but over the centuries it has produced some of the most important original thought, and its contribution to politics, sociology, mathematics, science and literature has been inestimable. Although the study of philosophy may not yield "the meaning of life, the universe and everything", many philosophers believe that it is important that each of us examines such questions and even that an unexamined life is not worth living. It also provides a good way of learning to think more clearly about a wide range of issues, and its methods of analyzing arguments can be useful in a variety of situations in other areas of life.
