| Summary: | This book is based on a series of lectures by Anatoly Logunov, Vice President of the USSR Academy of Sciences and Rector of Moscow University. The book, in accordance with Minkowski's concept, proves that the essence and the principle content of the relativity theory is a space-time unity, characterized by pseudo-Euclidean geometry. Within the framework of the relativity theory and the principle of geometrization the relativity theory of gravitation has been constructed which explains all existing gravitation experiments and provides a basically new concept of the Universe development and gravitational collapse. |
