Practical Matter: Newton’s Science in the Service of Industry and Empire, 1687–1851 - New Histories of Science, Technology, and Medicine

From 1687, the year when Newton published his Principia, to the Crystal Palace Exhibition of 1851, science gradually became central to Western thought and economic development. The book examines how, despite powerful opposition on the Continent, a Newtonian understanding gained acceptance and practical application.
