Excerpt from book: CHAPTER IV THE LAW OF EQUAL AND OPPOSITE REACTION THEORY OF THE COMPOSITPLOT AL that has been said up to the present regarding Fundamental Statistics has been to show their great value to bankers, merchants and investors. It is now time to show how the subjects heretofore mentioned are studied, and what justification we have for using the laws upon which this work is based. All readers at once associate the name of Sir Isaac Newton with an apple falling from a tree. This is because Sir Isaac was the first who asked why apples fall down instead of up, which question led to his discovery of the law of gravitation. It is evident from a study of Newton's life, however, that he may have considered his greatest work, not the discovery of the law of gravitation, but rather his researches into the Law of Action and Reaction.f Newton felt that his studies of the law of gravitation were practically complete, and nothing new would be discovered from further investigation thereof. He was sure, however, that he had only made a meagre investigation of the Law of Action and Reaction, and that research into that law would be rewarded by new and wonderful discoveries. Briefly, the Law of Action and Reaction is, To every action there is always opposed an equal reaction. See page 15 of Newton's Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy?Motts Second Edition. tFor brevity this law is often referred to as the Law of Equal Reaction.
