@stiff Thx for the better link! Looks like a nice book, though the writing isn't outstanding.
If someone out there is looking for a free calculus textbook, I highly recommend this one: It's old too, but the writing is very entertaining-the author doesn't take the subjects seriously, but keeps joking around about how everyone takes Calc so seriously. I wrote a modern calculus book. It's not-free, but very affordable + it comes with physics. V4.1 is coming out next week. Would you list some of those advantages and disadvantages? Contrary to the other replies here, Calculus has indeed changed over time, or at least how it's taught. In modern calc texts, there is an emphasis on limits and formal proofs.
In old calculus texts, in particular this book, there seems to be an emphasis on intuition over theory. The question is a difficult one: Is a self-taught student putting themselves at a disadvantage by using an old text as their primary source of knowledge?
It's a difficult question because it can only be answered by someone who's read both an old text and a new text, which seems rare. But here's hoping that the HN crowd features someone who's done just that. Sorry if I am sceptical but I don't really believe your claim that you were able to obtain a sound working knowledge of calculus from the Principia. For one thing, Newton barely makes use of calculus in the textbook and instead opts for geometric methods.

And even with that, he is not rigorous at all because rigor hadn't been discovered yet. I wouldn't even put it on the same level as modern textbooks since so much had yet to be discovered about calculus. I would not recommend the Principa to anyone except for historical interest. Everything in that book has been said more concisely by other people in the three hundred years since it was published.
