Relativistic Mechanics, Time and Inertia [E-Book] / by Emil Tocaci ; edited by C. W. Kilmister.
To accept the special theory of relativity has, it is universally agreed, consequences for our philosophical views about space and time. Indeed some have found these consequences so distasteful that they have refused to accept special relativity, despite its many satis factory empirical results, an...
