Concepts of Mass in Classical and Modern Physics

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Prize-winning exposition of the historical development of the concept of mass rigorously, concisely, and provocatively analyzes such topics as the ancient concept of mass, the neoplatonic concept of inertia, the conceptualization of inertial mass, the modern concept of mass, mass and energy, the concept of mass in quantum mechanics and field theory, and much more. "Graduate students in physics should find this book a unique introduction to a very vexing problem in their chosen field." — American Scientist.
