The action of the Royal Society at its meeting in London on November 6, in recognizing Dr. Albert Einstein's “theory of relativity” has caused a great stir in scientific circles on both sides of the Atlantic. Dr. Einstein propounded his theory nearly fifteen years ago. The present revival of interest in it is due to the remarkable confirmation which it received in the report of the observations made during the sun's eclipse of last May to determine whether rays of light passing close to the sun are deflected from their course | feedboo is The Einstein Theory of Relativity Lorentz Hendrik Antoon Published 1920 Categorie s Non-Fiction Science Source http www.gutenberg.org 1 About Lorentz Hendrik Antoon Lorentz 18 July 1853 - 4 February 1928 was a Dutch physicist who shared the 1902 Nobel Prize in Physics with Pieter Zeeman for the discovery and theoretical explanation of the Zeeman effect. He also derived the transformation equations subsequently used by Albert Einstein to describe space and time. Copyright This work is available for countries where copyright is Life 70 and in the USA.

The books published on the subject are so technical that only a person trained in pure physics and higher mathematics is able to fully understand them. In order to make a popular explanation of this far-reaching theory available the present book is published. Professor Lorentz is credited by Einstein with sharing the development of his theory. He is doubtless better able than any other man except the author himself to explain this scientific discovery. The publishers wish to acknowledge their indebtedness to the New York Times The Review of Reviews and The Athenaeum for courteous permission to reprint articles from their pages. Professor Lorentz s article appeared originally in The Nieuwe Rotterdamsche Courant of November 19 1919.
