Hello Jackson
Not only is the price too high for me, but the seller indicates that the tome contains an early calculus application, in 1669.
Yet Newton's Principia 1st ed is 1687. How can there be a calculus application prior to the publication of Principia?
That will be a very interesting explanation.
