Talk:The writing of Principia Mathematica
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Could you please decide if you want in this article to abbreviate Newton's "Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica" to either "Principia" or "Principia Mathematica", but preferably not both?
Although the abbreviation "Principia Mathematica" is allowed, it is rarely used since the work of Whitehead/Russell, the full title of which was "Principia Mathematica" and which is the primary entry for this string in this encyclopedia. To save confusion, most refer to Newton's work as just "Principia" or "the Principia".
