Berkeley and Newton on gravity in siris

Timo Airaksinen

pp. 87-106

Sir Isaac Newton speculates about aether, refraction of light, and the nature of gravity in his letters and in Opticks (1704). George Berkeley says in Siris (1744) that "[i]t is the opinion of Sir Isaac Newton" that aether may explain gravity (S #223).
