1921rif. 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
1921rif. 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.

Printed by letterpress from lead-alloy type cast in the Mackenzie & Harris typefoundry the formulas were set by hand as was the display type while the prose was composed and cast in Monotype. The types are Modern for the text with special characters as needed for mathematical symbols; Egyptian for the interspersed annotations printed in blue; and Lining Gothic for display. The paper is Schiller a German mouldmade sheet. A pixelated portrait of Einstein is the frontispiece. This image is based on a photograph taken about 1910 rendered as a coarse halftone for reference then handset in units of six-point type: three sizes of solid squares and one centered dot. Over 4000 pieces of type make up the picture. The portrait is printed in gray as is the famous equation: E=mc2 which appears on the flyleaves. The binding is dark blue cloth over boards with a band of tie-dyed Thai paper to create an unusual spatial effect spanning the cover diagonally. The titling on the spine is stamped in silver foil. The edition is limited to 400 numbered copies for sale. One of the great achievements in science Albert Einstein's Theory of Relativity was set forth in two papers published in the Leipzig physics journal Annalen der Physik in 1905. The German text was translated into English in 1923 by W. Perrett and G. B. Jeffrey and this is the version with some later corrections that is presented in this book. The Einstein papers are annotated by Richard Muller who has also provided a foreword and afterword. The foreword gives a general overview of the problems Einstein addressed against the background of nineteenth-century physics. The afterword carries the story from the miraculous year of 1905 when Einstein was only twenty-six through the effects of the theory on twentieth-century science. Muller conjectures on the progress of physics had Einstein not appeared and considers his career as a whole its last thirty-five years devoted mainly to an unsuccessful attempt to create a unified field theory. ___POSTAGE: International customers please note that additional postage may apply as the standard does not always cover costs; please inquire for details. ___Swan's Fine Books is pleased to be a member of the ABAA ILAB and IOBA and we stand behind every book we sell.
