Book Reviews of The Principia (Great Minds Series)

Book Review: A better, more modern translation is needed
Summary: 1 Stars

Newton's Principia is most likely the greatest scientific treatise ever written but a modern translation from the original Latin is needed. This book is written in cryptic language and is useful only for historical value in my opinion. Viva physics!
