In 1679 Hooke's letter to Newton on the laws of motion started the train of thought which resulted in the first book of Newton's " Principia The idea of universal gravitation had presented itself to Newton in 1665, and early in 1680 he discovered how to calculate the orbit of a body moving under a central force, but published no account of his discoveries, possibly in consequence of his inability to solve the question of the mutual attraction of two spheres; first book of his Principia exhibited at the Royal Society, 1686, and the whole published about midsummer, 1687, the completion and publication of the work being entirely due to Halley, who smoothed over difficulties between Hooke and the author, paid all expenses of publication, and corrected the proofs; M.P., Cambridge University, 1689 and 1701-2; appointed warden of the mint, 1696, and master, 1699; elected president 1 of the Royal Society, 1703, and annually re-elected for ; twenty- five years; as president was involved in the difficulties relating to the publication of Flamsteed's observations, which lasted from 1705 to 1712; his method of fluxions, which he brought out as an appendix to the Optics 1704, the cause of a bitter controversy between himself and Leibnitz as to priority of discovery, which lasted from 1705 until 1724; knighted by Queen Anne on occasion of her visit to Cambridge, 1705; one of Bishop Moore's assessors at the trial of Richard Bentley, 1714; presented reports on the coinage, 1717 and 1718. Died at Kensington. There are portraits of him by Kueller and Vanderbank. He attempted to amend ancient chronology by astronomy, corresponded with Locke, and wrote on theological subjects, objecting to the manner in which certain texts were treated with the view of supporting Trinitarian doctrine. Many anecdotes are told of his absence of mind and his modesty. His body lay in state in the Jerusalem Chamber and was buried in Westminster Abbey, 28 March 1727. The only collected edition of his works is an incomplete one by Samuel Horsley in five volumes, 1779-85.
