...of motion resulting from forces, and adds, " The whole difficulty of philosophy seems to me to lie in investigating the forces of nature from the phenomena...from one another." Newton's views, then, are clear, lie regards mathematics, not as a method independent of, though applicable to, various subjects, but... | |
