The book explains how physics blends experiment with calculation to explain motion and forces, guiding you to see why ideas matter in science.
In this introduction to the mathematical principles of physics, the author describes how theoretical work is done by forming differential equations and solving them with analysis. It emphasizes the balance between experimental evidence and abstract reasoning, tracing how Newton’s ideas moved theory beyond formal laws and showing why both calculation and observation are essential to a sound physical theory.
The discussion covers the historical development of ideas from Newton and Kepler to later methods, including the role of hydrodynamics, magnetism, and the motion of fluids. It also explains how principles are tested and refined through simplifying assumptions, approximations, and careful interpretation of data.
Ideal for readers interested in the history and foundations of physics, as well as students seeking a clearer view of how mathematical reasoning supports physical discovery.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book marks a significant contribution to the ongoing effort to unify the foundational principles of physics, with particular emphasis on theoretical physics. The author undertakes a rigorous analysis of the fundamental principles that form the basis of Newtonian philosophy, presenting readers with the latest theoretical principles in relation to physics as a whole. This study upholds the belief that theoretical physics requires the amalgamation of mathematics and observation, and firmly aligns with the rules of reasoning set out by Sir Isaac Newton. Grounded in mathematical principles and applicable to physics, this book re-examines the principles of hydrodynamics and introduces a third general equation to correct its shortcomings. It includes a hypothesis that all physical forces can be explained by vibrational motion in the aether and reasserts the Newtonian philosophical position that hypotheses must be based on qualities intelligible through sensation and experience. This text, with its vast scope and detail, provides vital insights for scholars of physics and anyone seeking a comprehensive examination of the subject.
