Here Einstein continues the work he had begun in 1907 on the specific heat of solids where the heat agitation of solids was reduced to a monochromatic oscillation of the atom and the specific heat was determined based on the quantum treatment of an oscillator in a radiation field.

192514131925. 1st Edition. FIRST EDITION IN ORIGINAL PICTORIAL WRAPPERS. Near fine condition. <br /> <br /> "This paper is an early example of a series of papers - which continued until his death - in which he explored within the confines of general relativity possible pathways in the direction of a unified field theory. Here he discusses whether it is possible to explain why electrons and protons have equal charge but unequal masses. He notes that a more natural solution to the field equations would be particles of opposite sign and equal mass thus anticipating but for unrelated "Select Annotated Biography 114 p. 307. <br /> <br /> ALSO INCLUDED: Zeeman "Lorentz en de Hypothese der Licht-Quanta Bij de Voortplanting Van Licht" pp. 325-330 Lorentz was Zeeman's mentor. <br /> <br /> ALSO INCLUDED: Some of the issue is a memorial to Lorentz.

192478904London: Methuen & Company 1924. First edition of this classic account of Born's analysis and interpretation of Einstein's theory of relativity. Octavo original cloth frontispiece of Einstein. Signed by Max Born on the verso of the frontispiece. Translated by Henry L. Brose. Very good in a very good dust jacket. Housed in a custom half morocco clamshell box. First editions are uncommon signed examples rare. Einstein's Theory of Relativity is a book in which one great mind explains the work of another great mind in terms comprehensible to the layman is a significant achievement. This is such a book. Max Born was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1954 and was one of the world's great physicists: in this work he analyzes and interprets the theory of Einsteinian relativity. The result is undoubtedly the most lucid and insightful of all the books that have been written to explain the revolutionary theory that marked the end of the classical and the beginning of the modern era of physics. Born follows a quasi-historical method of presentation. The book begins with a review of the classical physics covering such topics as origins of space and time measurements geometric axioms Ptolemaic and Copernican astronomy concepts of equilibrium and force laws of motion inertia mass momentum and energy Newtonian world system absolute space and absolute time gravitation celestial mechanics centrifugal forces and absolute space laws of optics the corpuscular and undulatory theories speed of light wave theory Doppler effect convection of light by matter electrodynamics including magnetic induction electromagnetic theory of light electromagnetic ether electromagnetic laws of moving bodies electromagnetic mass and the contraction hypothesis. Born then takes up his exposition of Einstein's special and general theories of relativity discussing the concept of simultaneity kinematics Einstein's mechanics and dynamics relativity of arbitrary motions the principle of equivalence the geometry of curved surfaces and the space-time continuum among other topics. Born then points out some predictions of the theory of relativity and its implications for cosmology and indicates what is being sought in the unified field theory. This work steers a middle course between vague popularizations and complex scientific presentations. This is a careful discussion of principles stated in thoroughly acceptable scientific form yet in a manner that makes it possible for the reader who has no scientific training to understand it. Only high school algebra has been used in explaining the nature of classical physics and relativity and simple experiments and diagrams are used to illustrate each step. The layman and the beginning student in physics will find this an immensely valuable and usable introduction to relativity. Methuen & Company hardcover books

1949133215Munchen: Paul List Verlag 1949. First German edition of this classic work by Frank a famed contemporary of Einstein. Octavo original cloth. Signed by Albert Einstein on the slip to the title page and inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper "To Karl W. Deutsch with the author's compliments Philipp Frank August 10 1950." Philipp Frank was a physicist mathematician and also a philosopher during the first half of the 20th century. He was a logical-positivist and a member of the Vienna Circle. He was influenced by Mach and was one of the Machists criticised by Lenin in Materialism and Empirio-criticism. He studied physics at the University of Vienna and graduated in 1907 with a thesis in theoretical physics under the supervision of Ludwig Boltzmann. Albert Einstein recommended him as his successor for a professorship at the German Charles-Ferdinand University of Prague a position which he held from 1912 until 1938. Very good in a good dust jacket. Much has been written about Albert Einstein technical and biographical but very little remains as valuable as this unique hybrid of a book written by Einstein's colleague and contemporary. Both rich in personal insights and grounded in a deep knowledge of twentieth-century science Phillip Frank's biography anchors the reader with a lucid overview of physics and draws an intimate portrait of the Nobel Prize–winner.
