I'll divide this review in two sections, the first one dealing with the contents of the book and the other one regarding the book's physical presentation.This is 1999's edition by UC Berkeley's press of the final 1726;s revised latin edition of the Principia. This edition is normally the gold standard against which any edition of Newton's work is measured, after all Cohen has been publishing books about Newton's life and work since the 1970's.Now the book itself is sturdy, thick white paper, approximately 4.5 pounds, however paying the extra 40 usd when compared with the soft cover edition of this book may seem too much for some people and that's understandable.
