Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the revolutionary theory of general relativity and gravitation, developed by Albert Einstein. It delves into the foundations of the theory, building upon the author's previous work on special relativity. The book examines the fundamental concepts of space-time, minimal lines, geodesics, and the implications of Einstein's equivalence hypothesis. The author uses a clear and systematic approach to guide readers through the complex mathematical concepts, including tensor algebra and analysis. The text delves into the physical implications of Einstein's theory, exploring the nature of gravity as a consequence of the curvature of space-time and the connection between gravity, optics, and the motion of celestial bodies. It examines the influence of gravitation on light propagation, offering explanations for phenomena such as the bending of light rays and the redshift of light. This book offers a profound exploration of Einstein's groundbreaking theories, revealing how they fundamentally changed our understanding of the universe. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
