In this accessible exploration of Einstein’s theory of general relativity, Arthur Eddington provides a lucid explanation of the complex relationship between space, time, and gravity. Written for a general audience, the book breaks down the revolutionary ideas of curved spacetime and how mass and energy affect gravitational fields. Eddington’s work not only explains key scientific concepts but also reflects on their broader implications for understanding the universe, making it a foundational text in popular science.

  • The Wave Basis of Special Relativity
    Robert Close
    This book offers a simple, intuitive explanation of special relativity. Rather than merely describing the implications of Einstein’s postulates, we derive the consequences of special relativity from the wavelike behavior of matter, which is consistent with ordinary physical processes in Galilean spacetime. Topics covered include time dilation, length contraction, Lorentz transf...

    JURGEN STRUCKMEIER & WALTER GREINER
    This book presents the extended Lagrange and Hamilton formalisms of point mechanics and field theory in the usual tensor language of standard textbooks on classical dynamics. The notion 'extended' signifies that the physical time of point dynamics as well as the space-time in field theories are treated as dynamical variables. It thus elaborates on some important questions inclu...
