I am sure, in distinguishing instances based on idle fancy or sheer
ignorance from instances that cast some light on the ways in which complexity
exhibits itself wherever it is found in nature.

What is not printed does not exist is OK for China where printing techniques exist from 220 AD. (The earliest known form of woodblock printing came from China dating to before 220 A.D.

Book I, Part XIV.Prop. XCVI, Scholium ...that light is propagated in succession, and requires about seven or eight minutes to travel from the sun to the earth.

THEOREM XXXIV.
The same things supposed, I say, that a corpuscle situate without the sphere is attracted with a force reciprocally proportional to the square of its distance from the center.

THEOREM XXXIV.

The same things supposed, I say, that a corpuscle situate without the sphere is attracted with a force reciprocally proportional to the square of its distance from the centre.

Let the bodies S and P revolve about their common centre of gravity C, proceeding from S to T, and from P to Q,. From the given point s lot there be continually drawn sp, sq, equal and parallel to SP, TQ; and the curve pqv, which the point p describes in its revolution round the immovable point s, will be similar and equal ... finally I've got the book view.

SECTION VII.

Concerning the rectilinear ascent and descent of bodies,

PROPOSITION XXXII.
PROBLEM XXIV.

Supposing that the centripetal force is reciprocally proportional to the square of the distance of the places from the centre; it is required to define the spaces which a body, falling directly, describes in given times.

finally !

It will be sufficient if that angle is found by a rude calculus in numbers near the truth...Prob XXIII, Scholium

So far concerning the finding of the orbits. It remains that we determine the motions of bodies in the orbits so found.

And after the problem is solved in the new figure, if by the inverse operations we transform the new into the first figure, we shall have the solution required...Lemma XXII

If the ellipsis, by having its centre removed to an infinite distance, degenerates into a parabola, the body will move in this parabola ; and the force, now tending to a centre infinitely remote, will become equable. Which is Galileo's theorem. And if the parabolic section of the cone (by changing the inclination of the cutting plane to the cone) degenerates into an hyperbola, the body will move in the perimeter...

to share information as a means of defense against disguised attacks. By these means, the next epochal war can be converted into a series of interventions and crises, instead of a world-shattering cataclysm or a stultifying and repressive world order.”

The parliamentary nation-state has emerged from the Long War as triumphant. Nevertheless, we should not expect that either this form of the constitutional order or the peace that recorded its ascendancy will be eternal. Mindful of the past, we can expect a new epochal war in which a new form of the State—the market-state—...

By the same, to gether with the third Law, Sir Christ. Wren, Dr. Wallis, and Mr. Huy-gens, the greatest geometers of our times, did severally determine the rules

institutions that permit individuated and diverse cultural development in the context of nonaggressive relations.

A body by two forces conjoined will describe the diagonal of a parallelogram, in the same time that it wovld describe the sides, by those forces apart.

But if the earth also moves, the true and absolute motion of the body will arise, partly from the true motion of the earth, in immovable space ; partly from the relative motion of the ship on the earth; and if the body moves also relatively in the ship;

quantity of matter is the measure of the same, arising from its density and hulk conjutictly.

attracted the reverent regard of the Princess of Wales, afterward queen-consort to George II. She was a woman of a highly cultivated mind, and derived the greatest pleasure from conversing with Newton and corresponding with Leibnitz. One day, in conversation with her, our author mentioned and explained a new system of chronology, which he had composed at Cambridge, where he had been in the habit "of refreshing hims

The Long War was won by strategic innovations that we might nowadays call the development of weapons of mass destruction, the globalization of communications, and the international integration of finance and trade. These strategic innovations have brought with them new challenges

“We are inclined to forget that, until the mid-1930s, liberal parliamentarianism, not fascism, was the principal target of communists.”

The state-nation was founded upon the claim (made notably by Hegel) that the State furnished the ideal vehicle for the realization of the nation...

“The shift to the market-state does not mean that states simply fade away, however. If the acquisition of more territory is less important than before to garnering wealth, the luring of people and capital by the most attractive state policies is absolutely crucial…. The real shift is simply from public purposes to private purposes,

“When we lengthen our gaze, we will see more clearly that law and strategy have always been mutually excited switches on the same circuit, and that the State itself, as we have seen in Book I, is the mechanism of feedback.”

The causal model these scholars have in mind, by which strategic innovation forces constitutional change, or sometimes vice versa, tends to obscure the fact that the link between the two is not merely causal but relational.
