Inertia and Gravitation: The Fundamental Nature and Structure of Space-Time: New

The book “Inertia and Gravitation: The Fundamental Nature and Structure of Space-Time” delves into the fundamental nature and structure of space-time, exploring topics in science such as mechanics, time, physics, and gravity. Authored by Markus King and Herbert Pfister, this textbook is part of the Lecture Notes in Physics Series and is suitable for adult education and further education levels. Published in 2015 by Springer International Publishing, this trade paperback offers insights into the intricate relationship between inertia and gravitation, making it a valuable resource for those interested in philosophical and social aspects of science.

Recent Advances in General Relativity – Einstein Studies Volume 4 – Hardcover

Recent Advances in General Relativity edited by Allen I. Janis and John R. Porter Birkhauser, 1992, First Edition, 0817635416, 3764335416, Hardcover as published without jacket, Einstein Studies Volume 4, Fine condition, no marks, no underlining, no highlighting, like new condition. 266 pages. Einstein Studies Volume 4 Classical general relativity, astrophysics, and quantum gravity have increasingly influenced one another in recent years. Black holes have moved to the forefront of astrophysical research, and pulsars have provided the first observational evidence for the validity of Einstein’s prediction of the rate at which gravitational waves would carry energy from a system. New mathematical techniques, introduced in classical relativity, are now being applied in the study of quantum gravity. Supercomputers are making it possible for physicists to study detailed predictions of the theory, which its highly nonlinear nature had previously made impossible. This collection of papers by the world’s leading research workers in these areas surveys these interacting fields of research. With a structured combination of high-level review papers and new results, plus extensive bibliographies, this book will help experts stay abreast of new developments, allow entrants to the field to find their way through the relevant literature, and give interested scientists a view of the current state of these exciting fields.

Six Not-So-Easy Pieces Einstein’s Relativity Symmetry & SpaceTime Book/Audio CDs

In Six Not-So-Easy Pieces, taken from these famous Lectures on Physics, Feynman delves into one of the most revolutionary discoveries in twentieth-century physics: Einstein’s theory of relativity. No one — not even Einstein himself — explained these difficult, anti-intuitive concepts more clearly, or with more verve and gusto, than Feynman.
