Description

Explore the origins and evolution of one of physics' most important theories with Einstein and the History of General Relativity. This volume is based on the proceedings of the First International Conference on the History of General Relativity, held at Boston University's Osgood Hill Conference Center in May 1986. This collection brings together essays from twelve prominent physicists, historians, and philosophers of science. The text covers the development of general relativity through the lens of experts like John Norton and John Stachel. Readers can examine the early reception of the theory with contributions from Carlo Cattani, Michelangelo De Maria, and Anne Kox. The book also addresses the physical implications of the theory and efforts to quantize it, featuring work by Jean Eisenstaedt and Peter Havas. This is an essential resource for those studying the history of science and the mathematical foundations of relativity.
