Sir Arthur Stanley Eddington, a British astrophysicist of the early 20th century, was the first to accomplish the experimental testing of one of the effect, forecasted by Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity. The author aimed to give an account of this theory without introducing anything very technical in the way of mathematics, physics or philosophy. He did not set forth this quite determined theory, but offers unprejudiced discussion of the possible objections and points out its weak spots.
...The book is aimed for a wide readership, though it can be of interest either for specialists – mathematicians, physicists and science historians.
