Here is a nice clean copy of THE CAMBRIDGE COMPANION TO NEWTON from the series The Cambridge Companions to Philosophy.  Please see my other auctions for more books in philosophy, theology, classics, and biblical studies. Sir Isaac Newton was one of the greatest scientists of all time, a thinker of extraordinary range and creativity who has left enduring legacies in mathematics and the natural sciences. In this volume a team of distinguished contributors examines the principal aspects of Newton's thought. They include not only his approach to space, time, mechanics, and universal gravity in Principia and his research in optics and mathematics, but also his lesser known clandestine investigations into alchemy, theology, and prophecy. Surveys whole range of Newton's philosophical output; Very distinguished team of contributors; Accessible to students. Table of Contents List of figures List of contributors Preface Introduction I.
