>45000£ to publish a book

$45 for a copy of a book that I can pick up on Amazon for $1? Sounds like a bargain!

Chandraashakars (sp?) is better.
Also theres Machs and Maxwells books, and like 10 different translated versions

>>8461683
there's minimum order sizes before a printing house will accept the order

You can't compare them like that when they're from different eras and about different things.

its literally the same book but in modern notation

I thought for a second that they were trying to publish the book contents from a modern language perspective that explained the content more clearly. Instead, we just have an proposition to tailor publish a book to fill an autistic need for materialistic aesthetic. Sad.

they don't specify whose translation it is... that may be a real problem, the best one is cajori's for someone really interested in understanding the book

mach and maxwell both wrote about the exact same thing, pretty much responding to Newton's principia.
Chandraa's book is a translation of Principia as well as explanation of a lot of his passages
