NEWTON, Sir Isaac Arithmetica Universalis: sive de compositione et resolutione arithmetica liber. Editio secunda, in qua multa immutantur & emendantur, nonnulla adduntur. - London, Tooke, 1722
8vo. Contemp. calf, neatly repaired. (4), 332 pp.; slight uniform browning but an attractive copy.
Second edition; the first of 1707 had been published by William Whiston who had extracted from Newton a somewhat reluctant permission to print it; «an amended edition followed, supervised by Newton himself (London 1722)» (DSB X, 93). «This edition was the last issued during Newton's lifetime and is almost as rare as the first» (Babson, Newton, 200).
