Description:

For this new edition, Roger Ariew has adapted Samuel Clarke's edition of 1717, modernising it to reflect contemporary English usage. Ariew's introduction places the correspondence in historical context and discusses the vibrant philosophical climate of the times. Appendices provide those selections from the works of Newton that Clarke frequently refers to in the correspondence.
