Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. THE EVOLUTION OF PHYSICS THE GROWTH OF IDEAS FROM EARLY CONCEPTS TO RELATIVITY AND QUANTA, BY ALBERT EINSTEIN & LEOPOLD INFELD, THE CAMBRIDGE LIBRARY OF MODERN SCIENCE. A light blue, cloth bound, hardback book, with silver coloured titles to the spine and front board, silver emblem of a scholar on front board. Comes with dust jacket that has the odd tear and brown spotting inside jacket. Please see photos. Dust jacket still has its original price of 10s. 6d net. 319 pages all intact and in clean, readable order. Published originally in 1938 this book was reprinted in 1947. The book is in good condition and as its a used book, normal wear, marks and tear apply consistent with use and age. The quality of the pages inside are of a high standard and look like they have hardly been used or read. This wonderful book is a plain and logical account of the steps through classical physics to relativity and beyond, written for a wide public, but with a full sense of responsibility. It gives Professor Einstein's account of his own great discovery of relativity.…

Clean and fine.også on a generalization. pais p. 496 First appearance of these two importent papers on the General theory of Relativity, in which is shown that the equation of motion follows directly from the field equation that defined the geometry."Einstein's last importent contribution to general relativity deals again with the problem of motion. It is the work done with Leopold Indfeld and Banesh Hoffmann on the N-body problem of motion. In these papers, the gravitational field is no longer treated as external. Instead, it and the motion of its (singular) sources are treated simultaneously. A new approximation scheme is introduced in which the fields are no longer necessarily weak but in which the source velocities are small compared with the light velocity.

First editions, in the scarce offprint versions, of Einstein's last and highly important contributions to General relativity, and in which is shown that the equation of motion follows directly from the field equation that defined the geometry."Einstein's last importent contribution to general relativity deals again with the problem of motion. It is the work done with Leopold Infeld and Banash Hoffmann on the N-body problem of motion. In these papers, the gravitational field is no longer treated as external. Instead, it and the motion of its (singular) sources are treated simultaneously. Anew approximationscheme is introduced in which the fields are no longer necessarily weak but in which the source velocities are small compared with the light velocity . The equations obtained have found use in situations where Newtonian interaction must be included. '(These equations) are widely used in analyses of planetary orbits in the solarsystem. For example, the Cal Tech Jet Propulsion Laboratory uses them, in modified form, to calculate ephmerides for high-precision tracking of planets and spacecraft."(Pais "Subtle is the Lord", p. 290-91)."The problem of the equation of motion of bodies is the following. The 1916 theory had a classical structure in the sense that there were both field equations (the curvature of space-time is determined by the mass and motion of bodies in space-time) and equations of motion of bodies (the world line of small mass is a geodesic). Are these two statements really separate? If the field equations were linear, they indeed would be. They are not linear, however, and Einstein showed (in the papers offered) that if matter is represented by a point singularity of the metric field, these singularities are located on world lines that are geodesics of space-time, provided its metric satisfies the equation of general relativity."(DSB).Weil: 202 a. 295 (both with an asterix denoting a major paper). - Boni: 236 a. 236.1. …
