""A Plain and Easy Introduction to the Newtonian Experimental Philosophy: Six Sections"" is a book written by Benjamin Martin and first published in 1765.

The first section deals with the basic principles of motion and force, while the second section covers the laws of motion. The third section explores the concepts of momentum and energy, while the fourth section delves into the principles of gravity and planetary motion. The fifth section discusses the properties of light and optics, and the final section covers the principles of electricity and magnetism. Throughout the book, Martin provides clear explanations and examples to help readers understand the complex concepts of Newtonian physics.
