The Principia was Isaac Newtons' "Mathematic Principles of Natural philosohy, which is simply known as Principia. In this book Newton spells out the mathematical proofs demonstrating his universal law of gravitation. This book was the culmination of a series of theories of other famous scientists which included Copernicus, Kepler, and of course Galileo. In Newton's first edition, he describes the basic laws of motion, and in later editions goes on to apply his theories to explain the movements of the planets. His most defining argument he used was his law of gravitation, which explained why the planets move the way they do. Newton's theory was not excepted by all for a long time, but his home country of England gladly excepted the theory, probably out of pride and for political reasons.
No. There are two works with similar titles. Isaac Newton wrote, "Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica," commonly called, "The Principia," in 1687. It is about Physics. You asked about, "Principia Mathematica," by Bertrand Russel and Alfred North Whitehead, 1910--1927. It is about the foundations of mathematics. Each is 3 volumes and was extremely pivotal to its respective field. However, the two books are different.
Science lol
Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica, Latin for "Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy", often called the Principia ("Principles"), is a work in three books by Sir Isaac Newton, first published July 5 1687.
Sir Isaac Newton's most famous published book is "Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica," commonly known as the "Principia."

1687! It is also known as the Principia Mathematica.
Principia Mathematica explained the law of gravity and laws of motion in mathematical terms.
