Stop reading and drop your computer on the floor. No? Why? It is because from our very earliest days we all knew that gravity would bring whatever object we drop heading towards the floor. And while even early man understood this to some degree, we never really began to grasp this huge concept until the groundbreaking work of Sir Isaac Newton.

Newton was the pioneer of the laws of gravitation, which he posits in his work Philosophi Naturalis Principia Mathematica, “Principia Mathematica”, which has been the lynchpin of modern science from that day forward.

In his new work, Super Principia Mathematica – The Rage to Master Conceptual & Mathematical Physics – The General Theory of Relativity, author Robert Louis Kemp sets out to re-revolutionize the sciences with his own cutting-edge work.

Kemp sets up his three-volume saga in a way much like Newton’s own work. However, unlike Newton’s highly technical style, Kemp’s is written in such a way that the layman can approach it with only a cursory understanding of high school physics, along with a few middle level mathematics concepts. He provides for the reader hundreds of examples that accompany his definitions, using a style akin to convenient whiteboard lectures.

However, that does not mean that this book should be used in place of a physics text book. This book sets up a very basic skeletal framework of other mathematics in order to push the boundaries of established theories in multiple fields surrounding physics. While this book may be one of the most influential books entering the scene for physics, it is not an all encompassing tool, but addresses only what must be addressed to understand Super Principia Mathematica positions.

So whether you are a physicist or mathematician, on the side or by trade, you should pick up this book and chime in on what could very well be major scientific issues in the very near future. Or, if you simply have an interest in and desire to learn about the modern advancement of physics, Super Principia Mathematica is for you.
