The time variation of the Newtonian gravitational constant G is derived from observational data on the binary pulsar PSR 1913+16. The theoretical principles involved are discussed in detail, and the resulting theory-independent ratio of the change in G0 to G0 is given as (1.0 + or - 2.3) x 10 to the -11th/yr, consistent with zero. The implications of this finding for unified theories of gravity which predict time variation of coupling constants over a Hubble time are considered.
