Although 's Gravesande was by no means the first semipupular exponent of Newtonian science and the experimental method, his 'Mathematical Elements of Physics' was easily the most influential book of its kind, at least before 1750 . The strength of his exposition was in his perfection of the method of justifying scientific truths either by self-evidence or by appeal to experimental verification, perfected by him through the design of many new instruments (DSB V, 510). - Bierens de Haan 1806; Sotheran 1627: "Last and best edition". - Unbeschnitten.
