The Evolution of Principia Mathematica
Author: Bernard LinskyPublisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1139497332
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 419
Book Description
Originally published in 1910, Principia Mathematica led to the development of mathematical logic and computers and thus to information sciences. It became a model for modern analytic philosophy and remains an important work. In the late 1960s the Bertrand Russell Archives at McMaster University in Canada obtained Russell's papers, letters and library. These archives contained the manuscripts for the new Introduction and three Appendices that Russell added to the second edition in 1925. Also included was another manuscript, 'The Hierarchy of Propositions and Functions', which was divided up and re-used to create the final changes for the second edition. These documents provide fascinating insight, including Russell's attempts to work out the theorems in the flawed Appendix B, 'On Induction'. An extensive introduction describes the stages of the manuscript material on the way to print and analyzes the proposed changes in the context of the development of symbolic logic after 1910.

Principia Mathematica 2

Pages : 255
Book Description
The Universe is Not Magic Newton's Principia Mathematica is extended to include the entire physical universe by incorporating work by contemporary critical thinkers who followed in Newton's footsteps. After decades of work, father and son team Robert and David de Hilster have come up with the Particle Model that explains every force in the universe as moving mass. Everything in this model is real and physical. Inspired by physicist Dr. Ricardo Carezani, this book stands on the shoulders of Dr. Glenn Borchardt's infinity and neomechanics as well as Ionel Dinu's underwater experiments simulating magnetic fields. In April 2015, Robert de Hilster came up with a mechanical solution to the "wave-particle duality". Soon after, David de Hilster hypothesized that all particles moving at the speed of light were the same particle including the photon, graviton, electron, and the particle responsible for magnetic fields, and thus The Particle Model was born. The universe has infinite levels and all moving masses or "Particles" including galaxies, suns, planets, molecules, and subatomic particles obey Newtonian laws and can be classified as gravitic, magnetic, electric, or luminic by their movements (see front cover). As Newton's Principia Mathematica laid the foundation for serious work in physics, mathematics, and engineering for hundreds of years, it is the belief of the authors that the additional principles described in this book will lay the foundation for new serious scientific work for decades to come. And like Newton's work, this work, if truly valid, is almost certain to be accompanied by technical innovations that have yet to be imagined. You will never be able to look at the universe in the same way again. This model will not only stick with you, it's downright addictive and you just might find yourself using this toolkit to hack the universe and advance science - all using your own natural physical intuitions.
