Sinossi

Excerpt from The Principle of Relativity

The book is divided into three parts. Part I is con cerned with general principles and may roughly be described as mainly philosophical in character. Part II is devoted to the physical applications and deals with the particular results deducible from the formulae assumed for the gravitational and electromagnetic fields. In relation to the spectral lines these formulae would require a 'limb effect' and a duplication or a triplication of indi vidual lines, analogous to phenomena already observed. Part III is an exposition of the elementary theory of tensors. This Part has been added for one reason because it may be useful to many mathematicians who may be puzzled by some of the formulae and procedures of Part II. But this Part is also required by another reason. The theory of tensors is usually expounded under the guise of geometrical metaphors which entirely mask the type of application which I give to it in this work. For example, the whole idea of any 'fundamental tensor' is foreign to my purpose and impedes the comprehension of my applications. The order in which the parts should be studied will depend upon the psychology of the reader. I have placed them in the order natural to my own mind, namely, general principles, particular applications, and finally the general exposition of the mathematical theory of which special examples have occurred in the discussion of the applications. But a physicist may prefer to start with Part II, referring back to a few formulae which have been mentioned at the end of Part I, and a mathematician may start with Part III. The whole evidence requires a consideration of the three Parts.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book takes on the challenge of re-imagining our understanding of relativity, spurred by the groundbreaking work of Einstein and Minkowski. The author departs from Einstein's later theory, focusing instead on the inherent uniformity of space-time relationships within nature. This approach, rooted in philosophical inquiry, offers a fresh perspective on the very fabric of reality, questioning the traditional separation between physics and geometry. The book delves into the fundamental nature of "fact," arguing that it is not simply a collection of independent entities but rather an interwoven network of relationships. Each element within this network, the author explains, possesses a unique "significance" determined by its essential connections to other elements. This concept of relatedness applies not just to objects but also to events, which are understood as spatio-temporal happenings imbued with a complex, multi-faceted character. The author carefully examines how our perception of time and space emerges from these interconnected events, ultimately proposing a new model for understanding the universe. By exploring the concepts of "adjectives" and "adjectival particles," the author offers a unique framework for exploring the nature of physical objects and their interactions within the universe. Through its detailed analysis of the relationship between nature and consciousness, the book reveals a deeper understanding of how our perception of reality is shaped by the inherent interconnectedness of all things.
