Relativity. The Special and General Theory

New York: Henry Holt and Company, 1921. THIRD EDITION. With frontispiece portrait Einstein dated 1920. Blue cloth, small tear at top of spine, corners slightly worn, no dust wrapper; front hinge a bit loose, otherwise a very clean copy. From the library of Martin J. Klein, professor of the history of science at Yale, and the first recipient of the Abraham Pais Prize for the History of Physics. This copy was given to Klein as a gift from his summer program NEH class of 1986 and is signed by 13 of his students. Third edition (though the only change is the date on the title page) of one of Einstein’s most renowned works, intended for readers with a general scientific and philosophical background. Part I treats the special theory of relativity, part II the general theory, and part III considers the universe as a whole.

Not in Weil or Boni.
