Relativity and Gravitation is an authoritative treatment of the tremendous impact that general relativity has had – in both theoretical and experimental arenas – one hundred years after Einstein produced his ground-breaking theory.
General relativity, also known as the general theory of relativity, and as Einstein's theory of gravity, is the geometric theory of gravitation published by Albert Einstein in 1915 and is the current description of gravitation in modern physics.
Gravitation is a widely adopted textbook on Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity, written by Charles W. Misner, Kip S. Thorne, and John Archibald Wheeler. It was originally published by W. H. Freeman and Company in 1973 and reprinted by Princeton University Press in 2017.
Finally, the general principle of relativity per-mits us to determine the influence of the gravita-tional field on the course of all those processes which take place according to known laws when a gravitational field is absent, i.e. which have already been fitted into the frame of the special theory of relativity.
