Riassunto

""Introduction to the Theory of Relativity"" by Peter Gabriel Bergmann is a comprehensive guide to one of the most significant scientific theories of the 20th century. The book provides a detailed introduction to the concepts and principles of Einstein's theory of relativity, including the special and general theories.The author begins by introducing the basic principles of relativity, including the concept of space-time and the role of the observer in determining physical reality. The book then delves into the special theory of relativity, which deals with the behavior of objects in motion relative to one another. The author explains the concepts of time dilation, length contraction, and the famous equation E=mc�����.The second part of the book focuses on the general theory of relativity, which deals with the behavior of gravity and the curvature of space-time. The author explains the concept of geodesics, the role of the metric tensor, and the famous equation describing the relationship between matter and the curvature of space-time.Throughout the book, the author provides clear and concise explanations of complex concepts, and includes numerous examples and illustrations to help readers understand the material. The book is written for anyone with an interest in physics or the history of science, and it provides a valuable introduction to one of the most important scientific theories of the modern era.This is a new release of the original 1946 edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
