Thinking About Space and Time [E-Book] : 100 Years of Applying and Interpreting General Relativity / edited by Claus Beisbart, Tilman Sauer, Christian Wüthrich.
This volume offers an integrated understanding of how the theory of general relativity gained momentum after Einstein had formulated it in 1915. Chapters focus on the early reception of the theory in physics and philosophy and on the systematic questions that emerged shortly after Einstein's mo...
