4.9/5 (17224 ratings)

Description:Excerpt from A Theory of Time and Space The introduction to the present volume was first published in 1913, in substantially the form here reproduced. The plan there outlined is here carried out in detail, and, although much remains to be done along similar lines, yet the present work is fairly complete in itself. The special object here aimed at has been to show that spacial relations may be analyzed in terms of the time relations of before and after, and the demonstration of this thesis has been carried out up to the stage of introducing coordinates, leaving further developments for a future volume. The present work is the outcome of an endeavour to get rid of certain obscurities in connection with some of the fundamental parts of Physical Science. Thus the meaning ordinarily attached to the equality of time intervals and of lengths, although sufficiently precise for the ordinary purposes of daily life, will yet be found to be somewhat vague when examined more closely. Again, although the idea of acceleration plays such an important part in Dynamics, yet, so far as the writer is aware, no satisfactory definition has hitherto been given of what we mean when we say that a particle is "unaccelerated." All attempts in this direction tacitly assumed that we had already at our disposal some unaccelerated body or system to which the motions of other bodies or systems might be referred.
