Principia and is

Moore is also well known for the so-called " open question argument ", which is contained in his ( also greatly influential ) Principia Ethica.
The Principia is one of the main inspirations of the movement against ethical naturalism ( see ethical non-naturalism ) and is partly responsible for the twentieth-century concern with meta-ethics.

There is some dispute over priority of various ideas: Newton's Principia is certainly the seminal work and has been tremendously influential, and the systematic mathematics therein did not and could not have been stated earlier because calculus had not been developed.
Moore's argument in Principia Ethica is ( among other things ) a defense of ethical non-naturalism ; he argues that the term " good " ( in the sense of intrinsic value ) is indefinable, because it names a simple, non-natural property.
