The Attraction of Gravitation: New Studies in the History of General RelativityJohn Earman, Michel Janssen, John D. Norton Springer Science & Business Media, 1. des. 1993 - 432 síður Devoted to the history of general relativity, this text provides reviews from scholars all over the world. Many of the papers originated at the Third International Conference on the History of General Relativity, held at the University of Pittsburgh in the summer of 1991. Topics covered include: disputes with Einstein; the empirical basis of general relativity; variational principles in general relativity; the reception and development of general relativity; and cosmology and general relativity. |
