• Prologue ; 1. The beginnings and the writing of the Principia ; 2. Basic concepts: definition and axioms ; 3. On the notion of limits and the ratios of evanescent quantities ; 4. On the motion of particles under centripetal attraction: an introduction to Newton's treatment ; 5. The law of areas and some relations which follow ; 6. The motion of bodies along conic sections ; 7. Kepler's equation and its solution ; 8. The rectilinear ascent and descent of bodies ; 9. The conservation of energy and the initial value problem ; 10. On revolving orbits ; 11. A pause ; 12. The two-body problem ; 13. The method of the variations of the elements of a Kepler orbit and Newton's lunar theory: an introduction to propositions LXV-LXIX ; 14. The three body problem: the foundations of Newton's lunar theory ; 15. The superb theorems ; 16. Attraction by non-spherical bodies ; 17. A digression into Opticks ; 18. Prolegomenon ; 19. The universal law of gravitation ; 20. The figure of the earth and of the planets ; 21. On the theory of tides ; 22. The lunar theory ; 23. The precession of the equinoxes ; 24. On the comets ; 25. The effect of air-drag on the descent of bodies ; 26. The solid of least resistance ; 27. The problem of the brachistochrone ; 28. The velocity of sound and long waves in canals

...a continuing source of pleasure, and a permanent reminder of its author, whom it was a privilege to know.
