This work serves as a commentary and introduction to the groundbreaking ideas and methodologies developed by Sir Isaac Newton, a pivotal figure in the scientific revolution. The text aims to elucidate Newton's complex theories for readers who may not be well-versed in mathematics while celebrating his contributions to science and reason. The opening of this work presents a preface in which Pemberton describes his motivation for writing the book, following the encouragement of friends upon the publication of a new edition of Newton's "Principia." Pemberton expresses admiration for Newton's intellectual achievements, reflecting on how they have expanded humanity's understanding of the natural world.
