Relativity in Business Morals
Author: Henry Morton RobinsonThe Meaning of Relativity
Author: Albert EinsteinPublisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 1400851874
Category : Science

Pages : 201
Book Description
In 1921, five years after the appearance of his comprehensive paper on general relativity and twelve years before he left Europe permanently to join the Institute for Advanced Study, Albert Einstein visited Princeton University, where he delivered the Stafford Little Lectures for that year. These four lectures constituted an overview of his then-controversial theory of relativity. Princeton University Press made the lectures available under the title The Meaning of Relativity, the first book by Einstein to be produced by an American publisher. As subsequent editions were brought out by the Press, Einstein included new material amplifying the theory. A revised version of the appendix "Relativistic Theory of the Non-Symmetric Field," added to the posthumous edition of 1956, was Einstein's last scientific paper.

Relativity: A Journey Through Warped Space and Time
Author: Daniel R. MayersonPublisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030189147
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 170
Book Description
This primer brilliantly exposes concepts related to special and general relativity for the absolute beginner. It can be used either as an introduction to the subject at a high school level or as a useful compass for undergraduates who want to move the first steps towards Einstein's theories. The book is enhanced throughout with many useful exercises and beautiful illustrations to aid understanding. The topics covered include: Lorentz transformations, length contraction and time dilation, the twin paradox (and other paradoxes), Minkowski spacetime, the Einstein equivalence principle, curvature of space and spacetime, geodesics, parallel transport, Einstein’s equations of general relativity, black holes, wormholes, cosmology, gravitational waves, time machines, and much more.

Book Description
‘Relativity in Business: How Physics Shapes Management Science’ unveils the intriguing overlap between physics and management, providing a novel outlook on business strategy and organisational behaviour. It leverages concepts from motion, thermodynamics, quantum mechanics, and chaos theory, among others, to forge a groundbreaking framework for addressing business complexities. Aimed at managers, strategists, and academics, the book translates intricate physics into actionable insights for business challenges, such as optimising operations and leveraging chaos for organisational benefit. Through compelling case studies, it shows how applying physics principles can spur innovation and cultivate efficient, sustainable business practices. This text is a valuable tool for anyone interested in melding scientific principles with business strategy to enhance outcomes, making it a seminal read in the fusion of science and management.
The Renaissance of General Relativity in Context
Author: Alexander S. BlumPublisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030507548
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 410
Book Description
This contributed volume explores the renaissance of general relativity after World War II, when it transformed from a marginal theory into a cornerstone of modern physics. Chapters explore key historical processes related to the theory of general relativity, in addition to presenting a thorough treatment of the relevant science behind these episodes. A broad historiographical framework is introduced first, thus providing the broad context in which the given computational approaches and case studies occurred. Written by an international and interdisciplinary group of expert authors, these chapters will bring readers to a more complete understanding of Einstein’s theory. Specific topics include: Social and citation networks The Fock-Infeld dispute Wheeler’s turn to gravitation theory The position of general relativity in theories of fundamental interactions The pursuit of a quantum theory of gravity The emergence of dark matter in relation to cosmological models Institutional frameworks for gravitational wave search in Europe The Renaissance of General Relativity in Context is ideal for historians, philosophers, and sociologists of science. Students and researchers in physics will also be interested in the topics explored.
Introduction to General Relativity
Author: John Dirk WaleckaPublisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9812705848
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 355
Book Description
A working knowledge of Einstein's theory of general relativity is an essential tool for every physicist today. This self-contained book is an introductory text on the subject aimed at first-year graduate students, or advanced undergraduates, in physics that assumes only a basic understanding of classical Lagrangian mechanics. The mechanics problem of a point mass constrained to move without friction on a two-dimensional surface of arbitrary shape serves as a paradigm for the development of the mathematics and physics of general relativity. After reviewing special relativity, the basic principles of general relativity are presented, and the most important applications are discussed. The final special topics section guides the reader through a few important areas of current research.This book will allow the reader to approach the more advanced texts and monographs, as well as the continual influx of fascinating new experimental results, with a deeper understanding and sense of appreciation.
