I remember I wanted to read Principia in my first year as a Physics student. Never got my hands on it but got my hands on other old physics books and I think it a bad idea to study on those.

The new ideas are usually not presented in the clearest way. They often are shown from the point of view of the author, who is a genius and has his own way of seeing things.

Better to study from people that have digested them, discussed them with peers and have a point of view on things that has become the standard in the scientific community
