Percival Frost fue un distinguido matemático cuyas contribuciones avanzaron significativamente el campo. Su legado literario está marcado por obras fundamentales que profundizaron en complejas teorías matemáticas, incluyendo sus ediciones detalladas de los Principia Mathematica de Newton y sus propios influyentes tratados sobre geometría y trazado de curvas. El riguroso enfoque analítico de Frost y su dedicación a la exposición clara hicieron que sus escritos fueran invaluables tanto para estudiantes como para académicos. Su extensa investigación, publicada en numerosas revistas matemáticas, subraya su profundo conocimiento y su impacto duradero en el pensamiento matemático.
"Principios matemáticos de la filosofía natural", publicado en 1687 por Newton, es fundamental en la historia del pensamiento. Aborda la gravitación universal, los movimientos planetarios, y sienta las bases de la hidrostática y acústica. La edición incluye un estudio preliminar de Antonio Escotado que aclara los problemas de la obra.
