1921réf. 009631Paris: Gauthier-Villars 1921 8vo 22.5 cm 16 pp. Uncut in printed wrappers wrappers slightly sunned; ownership entry on the title page. French translation by Maurice Solovine of Einstein's well-known 1920 lecture on the concept of the ether delivered at the University of Leiden. In this brief but influential text Einstein revisits the notion of the ether in light of the general theory of relativity arguing that while the classical mechanical ether must be abandoned the relativistic description of space-time still allows one to speak of a form of 'ether' understood as the physical properties of space itself. A concise and important exposition of Einstein's evolving views on the foundations of relativity.Boni-Russ-Laurence 115.B. Gauthier-Villars paperback
1921réf. 009633Paris: Gauthier-Villars 1921 12mo 19 cm XXII 120 pp. Printed wrappers wrappers slightly stained and frayed; small portions of paper missing from the spine; paper toned inside. Early French edition of Einstein's celebrated popular exposition of the theory of relativity intended to make the fundamental ideas of both the special and the general theory accessible to non-specialists. With a preface by the renowned mathematician Émile Borel who emphasizes the scientific importance of Einstein's work and its profound implications for modern physics. Einstein's text explains the essential concepts of space time motion gravitation and the structure of space-time in clear largely non-technical language presenting the empirical and conceptual foundations of relativity to a broad readership. The French translation was prepared by Maurice Solovine one of Einstein's close early collaborators and an important mediator of his ideas to the French-speaking public. Boni-Russ-Laurence 91.B. Gauthier-Villars paperback

1932réf. 180272Easton Pennsylvania: Mack Printing Company 1932. Einstein revises his "biggest blunder" First edition journal issue of the paper in which Einstein rejected his 1917 cosmological constant and acknowledged the expansion of the universe. Drawing on Hubble's law Einstein and de Sitter proposed that the constant should be set equal to zero thereby offering a new model of the universe. "In 1917 Einstein had shown how to construct a universe that was static by introducing a 'cosmological constant' into his equations. This matched well with the idea current before Hubble's 1924 measurement of the distances to the nebulae of a small and static 'universe' that was confined to the stars of the Milky Way galaxy. Einstein's idea of a static universe suspended between gravity pulling inward and the cosmological constant making the universe expand was ruled out by Hubble's data" Kirshner pp. 9-12. In Einstein and de Sitter's revised model "the galaxies receded forever but the recession rate declines to zero as time approaches infinity. Some sources indicate that this is the first attempt to describe our universe rather than a mathematical abstraction of universes possible under general relativity. Shortly after Einstein formally renounced his cosmological constant and according to George Gamow called it 'the biggest blunder of my life'" Wenner. Einstein and de Sitter 1872-1934 were close collaborators in the 1920s at Leiden where de Sitter was chair of astronomy and Einstein was a visiting professor. De Sitter is also known for the concepts of De Sitter space and the De Sitter universe. Large octavo. Original brown wrappers covers printed in black.

1921réf. 148232New York: Harcourt Brace and Company 1921. First edition of this popular science book that made Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity accessible to general readers. Octavo original cloth frontispiece with black and white illustrations. In very good condition name to the title page. Easy Lessons in Einstein 1920 by Edwin E. Slosson is an early and influential work of science communication that seeks to explain Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity in accessible terms for a general audience. Written at a time when Einstein’s ideas were gaining international attention but remained largely misunderstood by the public Slosson's book demystifies complex scientific concepts such as space-time the constancy of the speed of light and the relativity of motion using analogies and clear language rather than technical mathematics. As a chemist and science writer Slosson played a key role in making cutting-edge scientific developments comprehensible to non-specialists. The book reflects both the growing public fascination with modern physics in the early 20th century and the importance of translating theoretical science into broader cultural understanding.
