Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica, Latin for "Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy", often called the Principia (sometimes Principia Mathematica), is a work in three books by Isaac Newton, first published 5 July 1687. Newton also published two further editions, in 1713 and 1726. It contains among other things the statement of Newton's laws of motion, forming the foundation of classical mechanics, as well as his law of universal gravitation.
