Reading Newton's Principia Mathematica by candlelight

- Isaac Newton's Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy (Principia Mathematica), originally published in 1687. This is a reading of the first section (definitions and laws of motion). Newton's laws (at 36:23) and the definitions at the beginning are somewhat understandable but the rest of the passage is mostly incomprehensible.

There are free PDFs online but if you want a physical copy: amzn.to/3foeKFe
In the latter half of the video, only the corollaries are read out and not their explanations which were often very visual and didn't make sense to listen to. There is also a small section about absolute motion from the first scholium which is missing.
Translated to English by Andrew Motte (1729) and revised by Florian Cajori (1947).

Newton's laws (at 36:23) and the definitions at the beginning are somewhat understandable but the rest of the passage is mostly incomprehensible in my opinion. My video reviewing the Principia: czcams.com/video/1KA9z4J0d4E/video.html
It's just that we are not used to mathematics written in plain word. Change mean Differentiate. the first part of the book where he explain that doubling the mass double the motion and doubling the velocity doubles the motion is just a way of saying that motion = m * v . Same for first parapgraph where he explain that quantity of matter is density * volume

now i know for sure that you're aware of your asmr followers :D .....
but for some reason, the tingling effect is much higher when you solve problems on paper..

This brings back memories. I remember when I was 16 or 17 years old, and I lived in finnish countryside in my parents farm. One night there was a winterstorm that did cut out electricity. Next day I had physics exam about electricity, and I was studying by the candlelight, while outside wind was blowing loudly in darkness. Felt like scientist in 17th century.
WOW !!!
That's amazing
I’ve got to try that one day 💜
that's freakin epic
That's cool

Hahaha omg these comments are so funny here...
Most underated comment ! 😀😂😂
I hate apples
Ha! One of those witty, original and kind comments I look forward to stumbling upon.
You can definitely find anything on CZcams nowadays.
Gottfried Leibniz and Robert Hooke disliked this video.

Hooke set up a spring to press the "dislike" button ... he compressed the spring and released it ... so far the spring has hit the button 65 times.
they're dead.
@Mohel Skinberg yes Newton's law fails while clicking the button, The youtube fails newtons law the video plays and stops without any acceleration. The like dislike has no mass yet require force...
Mr. Galilei may have something to say, too!
Fantastic! We would probably be happy to listen to you read the phone book tbh.

not sure why I'm surprised to see you in the comment section of this video. NERD.
How many phone books does it take to fill a disused mine? I need to know.

Nothing makes me happier than seeing a Tibees video which, by everything we know about the CZcams algorithm and internet tastes in general, shouldn't succeed, do just that. 25 thousand people tuned in to watch someone read Newton's literature under candles. 211k people like this channel enough to come back. That's it.
This is beautiful...this is the best video I've seen for ages. It was written by Newton by candle light and it is read by Tibees by candle light. Beautiful in so many ways. Bravo for your artistic touch
hi welcome to tibees asmr
@Gumbo Clay agreed
Right
Hi, Tibees.
Please, do a ASMR video whispering this very book you read here in this video. You can get a new legion of fans. Your voice is so sweet! I wonder how would be if you make Asmr math-phisics videos.
I had no idea Newton had such a great sense of humor. He kept me in stitches the whole time.
1) Find a quiet place
2) Sit down (lie down if you prefer)
3) Close your eyes
4) Enjoy the video

I think this is the most important book in the history of science.
And probably the most important book a being from our species has done to understand objectively the universe.
The Newtonian Mechanics are so precise, after 2000 years of speculation, a genius mind offered the world the first causes and principles of how the universe functions at a matematical-mechanical level, a work that allowed us to manipulate matter and advance to our technological era, and a book that show us the true perspective of Natural Philosophy.

wonderful use of her time. melodious voice while learning. I'd like to see her speak with Jaron Lanier, genius, inventor, business man, father and husband. He too is doing much to educate the world on the history and future of AI (if any). I'm sure they would give a meaningful presentation. Check him out,you'll find your time, well

It's pleasing to know that there are still those out there who read the classics by candlelight. Respect.
This is a wonderfully intimate presentation of one of the pillars of human understanding. Thank you so much and I hope you keep these coming with other works, as well as live discussions of such matters as the nature of the universe, physics, qm, and whatever else your curiosity discovers next :)

Well, the good stuff was later in the book.
I loved this, Toby. This English is 80 % Latin, easy to understand for me, a Spanish native speaker. I studied all of what you said at high school and college. I'm currently applying Newton's laws to Hyperloop. Never could Newton have imagined that his laws would be centuries later applied to a vehicle running at 760 mph!
Greetings from Spain.

Listening to this while studying for my Engineering exam makes me feel like I’m Isaac Newton’s son being forced to do his homework while listening to his explanations on gravity 😆 Subbed cause I enjoyed this
A fairy tale princess is reading me Newton by candlelight as I fall asleep.
I’m lost for words.
This is just the best damn thing.
Ps: Props on the authentic props.

When you think CZcams has no more unique things to offer - and are completely wrong! I loved this idea so much - just can't tell. Thank you so much for this video- it's so simple, but yet so brillant, all the best of luck to you with "Principia Mathematica by candlelight"!
This was very enjoyable! I listened to it while cleaning my apartment yesterday. I majored in engineering and physics many years ago, and I eventually earned my PhD in physics. I haven't been a practicing physicist for many years, but hearing Newton's brilliant and carefully chosen words presented in your clear and intelligent voice did my soul "if I may so express it" good.
Great way to reminisce Newton's work...We need people like you, who can desseminate the knowledge of Maths and sciences..Lady you're amazing
Strangely gothic, yet soothing and educational, an insight into Newtons mind.👍🤓
Glad I found this channel! I find mathematics so interesting and yet most of it is way beyond my wheelhouse! Hearing and seeing it delivered in a calm, relaxing style is certainly a joy. I'll try to absorb as much as I can. Keep up the great work, Tibees!
What a wonderful voice to hear through headphones. She really presents Newton's principals in an appealing way.
This may be the best thing I've ever listened to while trying to sleep. Truly. This is a gift.
This is magical dude i used to read books but under the night sky with my lamp ❤️❤️❤️
Watching this video makes me feel cozy❣
Thank you, Tibees.
-From a korean student who really loves physics.
All your videos are so calming as well as entertaining and educational.
Tibbees delivery of complex physics is simply amazing, brilliant.🎉
Thanks for bedtime story, Toby.
Wait, this actually makes me so happy. I’m gonna listen to this when i go to bed tonight.
Since I am a teenager I have found the beauty in Science.
You make Science even more beautiful.
It is so nice to have someone do the reading of important milestone books.
I love literature and I love Science - this video combines the two loves.
Thumbs up for this video.
This should have millions of views. It's relaxing.
This was so calming and peaceful to listen to. ❤

You inspire me to know about everything that we use, see or feel. Thank you so much you are doing a great work. Keep it up.
Please don't external forces to disturb who you are.
I love who you are.
Listened to this when I was tired, I slept wonderful, such a calming voice.
Tibees is that physics teacher that everyone wished for but never got! ♥️
You have a gift of opening minds to the natural world whilst simultaneously stilling them. Just lovely.
A historic lecture - this is completely aweseome!!! Great, just great!
I bought Newton's Principia () 5 years ago. But always put it aside as "tough book", I'll come back later"! But With u Toby, I've started Principia again. Hope this time it goes on.
Its so wonderful to imagine that the great Newton wrote all the great maths , physics and philosophy under these candlelights, honestly got a feel of Newton's times.
I remember a quote from a movie and that suits the context of video
" Great knowledge comes from the humblest of origins "
The movie is Man Who Knew Infinity and it's about the great mathematician Sirinivasa Ramanujan
1 hour 6 minutes of constant focus, wow.
Now i want to read the book again with your voice in my head. Thank you!
This REALLY scratches an itch I never knew I had. Its definitely a tiny, modest miracle.
She is brilliant girl, bless you for your brighter future ahead.

A 1 hour video with *NO ADS* ?!? You’re a godsend, Toby.
You ever heard of adblock? What year you live in, 2005
pianosenzanima You ever heard of watching CZcams on a mobile device?
never having actually read principia in its original form, i have to say 'thank you' for taking the time to do so - i was repeatedly surprised and delighted at discovering the myriad concepts he coined, formalised or popularised.
The original form is in Latin.
I felt like I am in 1700s...
BTW In my childhood we used to have frequent power cuts and I used to study in a similar way. :)
Tibees! I'm learning calculus because you have inspired me to do so :)
Listening to this before bed like a bedtime story. Love you Tibees ❤
hearing you read this is calming and meditative. At about 50:00 and onwards, nice explanation of the low of conservation of momentum.
This man was light years ahead of his time. 1 book by 1 man in a time where people where in scientific darkness giving birth to just about everything taught in physics classrooms today. Who knows who long we would have had horses and wagons if it wasn’t for this guy paving the way. True OG.
This is beyond cool! Thank you for the brilliant video! :)
Excellent. Enjoy all your content and this is helpful. You deliver all your content in a calm, informative, well-thought, direct, methodical and appropriate (non-rushed) pace that is a cut above. I have never read Newton's famous work, but your reading it to me is easier for me than reading it directly myself. I used to read many books in many different subjects and was able to read directly and immediately focus / concentrate for long periods of time, but this has gotten more difficult over the years. This content is very helpful. I used to read college textbooks to a friend who has an impaired optic nerve, but it seems now I'm the one who needs some help because it's easier with audio and video. Thank you and keep up the excellent work and excellent content.
Thank you very much for this video. I have always taught my students since the 70´s how would it have been to investigate, write and read in Newton times!!! my dream is now a reality. Cheers from Patagonia, Argentina.
Absolutely mesmerizing ,you would be well suited for the voice of many a science audiobooks
I'm in love with your voice, so soothing
So this is my fav video to sleep now...like a lullaby...I'm gonna download it n convert it into mp3 n save it in my phone. 😇😇 Best channel CZcams recommended me this year guys. Wish u all the happiness n success Toby! 🙂👍👍
I didn't understand the beauty and romance of a thinking mind until I watched this video. Great job!
My friends:
"I listened to music before I sleep!"
"I read books!"
Me:
Wonderful!
This Bible should be read with respect, solemnity, and reverence.
I was very thrilled with this video.
Congratulations!!!
But Bible is corrupt .
Thank you, that is very kind and gentle. Everything claim down and focus when listen to the reading.
The laws of motion put forth in a way my brain can understand and comprehend. Thank you Tibees. An hour worth sitting and listening. And yes I did this with just my cellphone. Turned all other lights off. Quiet and dark. Maybe why I was able to get into and understand what you were reading.
I swear this is the perfect channel.
A genius angel...Tibees you are simply awesome....♥
I respect your great effort you putted in doing the subtitles :)
I love the way you make things look so simple and fun! Ly
Beautiful in so many ways! She's a true time-bender.
Wow Tibees, I've Newton's Principia. I am glad that at least someone giving importance to this great book which is the first book on theoretical physics. Simply great!
Thank you so much. I have a lot of anxiety about difficult forms of mathematics. Your video makes maths sound very relaxing
I'm going to use this to fall asleep to. No disrespect, but the sound of your voice is very soothing.
Another superb video, Tibees. Thank you!
I just know at any moment, the ghost of Newton is going to appear. And he will be smiling.

Bodies and forces and motion impressing upon other bodies... oh my; the candelabra and the subtext in this reading, combined with its highly attractive narrator, undoubtedly torments with distraction and tension many a young impressionable male audience, especially the academic minded and well studied in this field - truly a sorceress of delivery, venue, and material selection is Mrs. Tibees to tease an active and playful imagination! - well done. (And please! excuse upfront any undue, unintended, and/or unwanted attributions or misrepresentation with what is most assuredly my innocent and playful characterization of any and/or all levels of original intention set behind and cast directly forth in this edition on your channel)
Fantabulous bedtime story! Bedtime as to soothing, not boring. Like to the point where you speak the words. Much better then trying to read it myself. Thank you.
Man it's crazy imagining all the trouble Newton had to go to to figure this stuff out.
He even had to create a new branch of mathematics to be able to explain it!, and he was freaking 22 yo!!
it was said that he worked 16 hours almost everyday
@@lordspongebobofhousesquare1616 even with that kind of work ethic I cannot imagine or comprehend how one human is capable of producing all of these great ideas and revelations. To me, this is like the knowledge of god gifted to us humans through Newton.

Not a bad use of time.
You look like hermione granger from chamber of secrets!
Love your videos! Makes me fall in love with physics again! You’re super talented
Wonder if Newton knows how romantic that is having Tibees read his books by candlelight!
Thank you for the subtitles. :)
Not the easiest task I must say on this video haha
Put ASMR in video title..
I'm relaxed by hearing your voice😊
I really enjoyed the ambiance-it made the whole video seem old-fashioned
I think I've finally found the best video on CZcams.
Tibees : Female version of Isaac Newton
OMG, when Toby started lighting candles I thought she might have turned spiritualist. I waited for the chanting.
What a relief when she started reading Newton.
😂😂
Thank you, this was nice to listen to while I was doing a rather dull job.
I was out on the day this video was posted. Listening to this is a clear and subtle list of what I actually know Vs what I thought I knew. The way the ideas are presented don't impose a claim but rather describe an experiment which would prove its validity yet again to an experimenter. This is more of like, how simple observations and then thought philosophies lead to some very important scientific ideas to come about.
Thanks for the video!
First. Looks like a good video by the way.
