1950réf. 465431950. 8vo. Original proof-copy of the latest stage presumably final proof in the same format as the printed version and with no corrections printed on rectos and versos. Stapled twice in left margin. A few marginal creases. A proof- number to upper left corner in red ink 297. Pp. 109-148 tipped-in errata slip at p. 147. Very rare original proof-copy of the two highly important appendices for Einstein's "The Meaning of Relativity" third edition 1950 the second appendix being one of the most important pieces Einstein ever wrote namely the appendix "in which he described his most recent work on unification" Pais and the work which was hailed by The New York Times under the heading "New Einstein theory gives a master key to the universe". The first appendix which appeared for the second edition of the work remained unchanged throughout the history of "the Meaning of Relativity" and was written because "Since the first edition of this little book some advances have been made in the theory of relativity. . The first step forward is the conclusive demonstration of the existence of the red shift of the spectral lines by the negative gravitational potential of the place of origin" . A second step forward which will be mentioned briefly concerns the law of motion of a gravitating body." . A third step forward concerning the so-called "cosmologic problem" wiil be considered here in detail." pp. 109-10. The present 40 pages constitute the final proof-copy of the entire appendices I and II to the Generalized Theory of Gravitation exactly as they appeared in the third edition Princeton in 1950. Einstein's "The Meaning of Relativity" was originally published in 1922 on the basis of his "Vier Vorlesungen ueber Relativitetstheorie" given at Princeton in 1921. A second edition with an appendix appendix I appeared in 1945 several issues and editions of this appeared also and in 1949 the third edition with the seminal Appendix II printed for the first time appears also appeared in 1950 in Princeton. In 1950 a revised edition of the third edition appears having Appendix II slightly revised and in 1953 the heavily revised fourth edition appears. THIS IS THE PROOF-COPY OF APPENDICES I AND II FOR THE "THIRD EDITION INCLUDING THE GENERALIZED THEORY OF GRAVITATION" PRINCETON 1950. The main focus of the work throughout all these editions of the work since 1949 is Appendix II which deals with Einstein's main interest the generalization of the Gravitation Theory which was to unite the general theory of relativity with electromagnetism recovering an approximation for quantum theory and presenting us with a theory to explain the universe as a unified entity the ultimate goal for the greatest physicist that ever lived. "This was Einstein's ultimate response to the mechanical-electromagnetic crisis in physical theory he had first talked about in the opening of his 1905 light quantum-paper." Nandor in D.S.B. p. 330. It was indeed Einstein's aim to provide an explanation of the universe through his unified field theory although he was well aware that his sort of field theory might not exist. However even the establishing of the non-existence of it could bring us closer to an explanation than we had ever been before. There is no topic of greater importance to Einstein than his theory of unification. "In 1949 Einstein wrote a new appendix for the third edition of his "The Meaning of Relativity" in which he described his most recent work on unification. It was none of his doing that a page of his manuscript appeared on the front page of "The New York Times" under the heading "New Einstein theory gives a master key to the universe". He refused to see reporters and asked Helen Dukas to relay this message to them: "Come back and see me in twenty years"." Pais p. 350. unknown

1920réf. 1433Berlin: Julius Springer 1920. 1st Edition. FIRST EDITION IN ORIGINAL WRAPPERS OF EINSTEIN'S LEIDEN LECTURE EXPLAINING AT LENGTH HIS THEORY OF THE ETHER ALONG WITH THOSE OF LORENTZ & MAXWELL. Very good condition. "Einstein's lecture at the University of Leiden on the occasion of his appointment as a visiting professor summarized his current views on the ether and retrospectively looked at the development of his opinions on the physical properties of space" Calaprice The Einstein Almanac 86. In this lecture Einstein recanted his earlier denial of the ether writing: "Recapitulating we may say that according to the general theory of relativity space is endowed with physical qualities; in this sense therefore there exists an ether. According to the general theory of relativity space without ether is unthinkable; for in such space there not only would be no propagation of light but also no possibility of existence for standards of space and time measuring-rods and clocks nor therefore any space-time intervals in the physical sense. But this ether may not be thought of as endowed with the quality characteristic of ponderable media as consisting of parts which may be tracked through time. The idea of motion may not be applied to it" Einstein Ather 1920. In this lecture Einstein also sought "to reconcile his theory of relativity with his mentor's Lorentz's cherished concept of the aether. Einstein stressed that special relativity took away the last mechanical property of Lorentz's aether: immobility. However he continued that special relativity does not necessarily rule out the aether because the latter can be used to give physical reality to acceleration and rotation. This concept was fully elaborated within general relativity in which physical properties which are partially determined by matter are attributed to space but no substance or state of motion can be attributed to that "aether" aether = curved space-time" Wikipedia.
