AI Thread Summary
The original manuscript of "Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica" is not available, but the first published edition can be accessed online. The work was originally written in Latin, consistent with its title. Cambridge University holds Newton's personal copy of the first edition, which includes blank pages for annotations and corrections. Notably, Newton made adjustments to the Third Law in the second edition. For further inquiries, the University of Sussex's Newton Project may provide assistance.

Same language as the title... Latin.
 
So I know that electrons are fundamental, there's no 'material' that makes them up, it's like talking about a colour itself rather than a car or a flower. Now protons and neutrons and quarks and whatever other stuff is there fundamentally, I want someone to kind of teach me these, I have a lot of questions that books might not give the answer in the way I understand. Thanks
