19201433Berlin: Julius Springer 1920. 1st Edition. FIRST EDITION IN ORIGINAL WRAPPERS OF EINSTEIN'S LEIDEN LECTURE EXPLAINING AT LENGTH HIS THEORY OF THE ETHER ALONG WITH THOSE OF LORENTZ & MAXWELL. Very good condition. "Einstein's lecture at the University of Leiden on the occasion of his appointment as a visiting professor summarized his current views on the ether and retrospectively looked at the development of his opinions on the physical properties of space" Calaprice The Einstein Almanac 86. <br /> <br /> In this lecture Einstein recanted his earlier denial of the ether writing: "Recapitulating we may say that according to the general theory of relativity space is endowed with physical qualities; in this sense therefore there exists an ether. According to the general theory of relativity space without ether is unthinkable; for in such space there not only would be no propagation of light but also no possibility of existence for standards of space and time measuring-rods and clocks nor therefore any space-time intervals in the physical sense. But this ether may not be thought of as endowed with the quality characteristic of ponderable media as consisting of parts which may be tracked through time. The idea of motion may not be applied to it" Einstein Ather 1920. <br /> <br /> In this lecture Einstein also sought "to reconcile his theory of relativity with his mentor's Lorentz's cherished concept of the aether. Einstein stressed that special relativity took away the last mechanical property of Lorentz's aether: immobility. However he continued that special relativity does not necessarily rule out the aether because the latter can be used to give physical reality to acceleration and rotation. This concept was fully elaborated within general relativity in which physical properties which are partially determined by matter are attributed to space but no substance or state of motion can be attributed to that "aether" aether = curved space-time" Wikipedia.

1998HS-51Princeton N.J.: Princeton University Press 1998. This volume opens in spring 1914 when Einstein takes up a research professorship at the Prussian Academy of Sciences in Berlin and closes with the collapse of the German Empire four and one-half years later. A good portion of the documentation which comprises more than 675 letters has only recently been discovered by the editors. The letters touch on all aspects of Einstein's activities and shed new light on his inner life including the breakup of Einstein's first marriage and the divorce are presented here for the first time in all their complexity. New material shows Einstein maintaining a strong sense of moral urgency throughout the war. The scientific correspondence documents Einstein's struggle to find satisfactory field equations for his new gravitational theory--the general theory of relativity--and his continued discussion with leading physicists and mathematicians about the implications and further development of the theory. 714 pgs. Illustrated. Minimal shelfwear. First Edition. Soft Cover. Fine. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Princeton University Press Paperback

When he wrote the book in 1916 Einstein's name was scarcely known outside the physics institutes. Having just completed his masterpiece The General Theory of Relativity—which provided a brand-new theory of gravity and promised a new perspective on the cosmos as a whole—he set out at once to share his excitement with as wide a public as possible in this popular and accessible book.Here published for the first time as a Penguin Classic this edition of Relativity features a new introduction by bestselling science author Nigel Calder.For more than seventy years Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1700 titles Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines.
