A nonrelativistic theory is discussed here which contains an interaction which produces isotropic inertia for anisotropic matter distributions. The interaction is a 4-body interaction and it is explained why it is necessary to have this type of interaction. The consequences of the theory are discussed for celestial mechanics including the predicted perihelion precession. Frame dragging effects are calculated and compared with other theories. Possible ways to extend the theory to noninstantaneous interactions are briefly discussed. This theory demonstrates that Mach's principle in the form considered here is not necessarily inconsistent with isotropic inertia.
