Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Both historical treatment and critical analysis, this work by a noted physicist takes a fascinating look at a fundamental of physics, tracing its development from ancient to modern times. Kepler’s initiation of scientific conceptualization, Newton’s definition, post-Newtonian reinterpretation—contrasting concepts of Leibniz, Boscovich, Kant with those of Mach, Kirchhoff, Hertz. In-depth analysis of contemporary trend toward eliminating force from conceptual scheme of physics. "An excellent presentation"—Science. 1962 edition.
