In this double-volume work, a great modern philosopher propounds a system of thought in which Einstein's theory of relativity is regarded as the natural progression of the motives inherent to mathematics and the physical sciences. Includes such topics mechanism and motion; Mayer's methodology of natural science; Richter's definite proportions; Einstein's relativity and "reality...(展开全部)

This classic work offers a concise and comprehensive review of the literature on relativity as of 1921, along with the author's insightful update of later developments in relativity theory and coverage of subsequent controversies. Special attention is given to unified field theories. 1958 edition.

Einstein's general theory of relativity requires a curved space for the description of the physical world. If one wishes to go beyond superficial discussions of the physical relations involved, one needs to set up precise equations for handling curved space. The well-established mathematical technique that accomplishes this is clearly described in this classic book by Nobel Lau...(展开全部)
