Gravitation and Inertia

Gravitation and Inertia

Editorial Reviews
Review
Robert Geroch, University of Chicago : This book is an ambitious walking tour through a host of topics in general relativity. It includes a treasure chest of useful references.
Richard Matzner, Director of the Center for Relativity at the University of Texas, Austin : Bringing together both the philosophy and the application in one place produces a synergy that vastly increases the value of the work.

Review
Gravitation and Inertia has plenty of useful resources and ideas and it is enjoyable. It covers, sometimes with distinctive originality, topics not easily found in other textbooks. Its charm lies in the interweaving of Wheeler's speculative quest for the physical origin of inertia with Ciufolini's experimental craft. In such interweaving lies the magic of an extraordinarily beautiful science: the science of the shape of space-time.
