BL London. BN Paris 5. Willems 1008. NLM/Krivatsy 3116. - FIRST EDITION OF DESCARTES' SYSTEM OF PHYSICS in which he developed his theory of vortices. Based in part on his then unpublished work Le monde which treated the creation and function of the universe in completely mechanistic terms Descartes' Principia provides a systematic statement of his metaphysics and natural philosophy. The first part Dc principiis cognitionis humanae Of the Principles of Human Knowledge deals with the nature of motion rest force and action. He defines motion in Book II and distinguishes the difference between translation and 'the force that brings about this translation.' Descartes was careful in the Principia to qualify his mechanistic Copernican views with the idea that all motion is relative. 'His vortical theory allowed him to argue that since the earth is at rest in its surrounding medium it remains unmoved although it together with its entire vortex necessarily circles the sun' Norman. Descartes' system represents a truly comprehensive look at the universe in a fundamentally new mechanistic and non-teleological way. His vortex theory was the starting point for all serious work in physical theory in the mid-l7th century including Newton. The fourth and final part of the work contains the first scientific theory of magnetism.
