Concepts of Mass in Contemporary Physics and Philosophy

Concepts of Mass in Contemporary Physics and Philosophy

Editorial Reviews
Tim Maudlin, Rutgers University
"Concepts of Mass in Contemporary Physics and Philosophy addresses an important issue, covering a large swathe of territory and presenting technical results in clear and accessible way. There is no comparable study of mass in the field, and the need for a synoptic review is obvious. Philosophers and historians of science, who often lack the technical expertise to evaluate the work of physicists, will find the book very useful. Physicists, too, will value the book, particularly because it brings together results that are widely dispersed in the literature."

Review
Barry R. Holstein American Scientist : An interesting and stimulating mix of physics and philosophical issues . . . and its also fun to read.
