Physical Relativity is a critical examination of one of the foundations of modern science, Einstein's 1905 special theory of relativity. Harvey Brown defends an original interpretation of the theory, and hence of the nature of space and time, which combines Einstein's insights with those of his immediate precursors. Paperback, 240 pages. Size: 234 x 156 mm. Weight: 377g.

Einstein's theory was accepted as the true theory in 1915, but soon took a back seat to quantum mechanics. Not until the existence of black holes by Stephen Hawking in the 1960s, was the theory revived. This book tells the story of both events and the techniques employed by Einstein and relativists to construct, develop, and understand his theory. With 29 halftones. 22 line illus.. Hardback, 384 pages. Size: 238 x 166 mm. Weight: 788g.
