Am I right when I say during Newton's time there was no idea of fields?
Now I have been looking for books and courses which are meant for amateurs. So I came across this video of one of my favourite professors Prof Leonard Susskind. http://theoreticalminimum.com/courses/general-relativity/2012/fall/lecture-9.
In this lecture he has mentioned about Newtons field equations. How can there be Newtons field equations? Can somebody explain me what it means and what the variables stand for?
F= ma= -m∇Φ(x)
a= -∇Φ(x)
