I will clarify Newtons notion (as can be found in Newtons utterances on unification) and practice of unification (its actual occurrence in his scientific work). In order to do so, I will use the recent theories on unification as tools of analysis (Kitcher, Salmon and Schurz). I will argue, after showing that neither Kitchers nor Schurzs account aptly capture Newtons notion and practice of unification, that Salmons later work is a good starting point for analysing this notion and its practice in the Principia. Finally, I will supplement Salmons account in order to answer the question at stake.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
