First Printing of Einstein's 'The Evolution of Physics'
“The book traces the development of ideas in physics, and originally published in 1938 by Cambridge University Press. It was a popular success. The book has four chapters: The Rise of The Mechanical View; The Decline of the Mechanical View; Field, Relativity; and Quanta. The third chapter (Field, Relativity) examines lines of force starting with gravitational fields (i.e., a physical collection of forces), moving on to descriptions of electric and magnetic fields”.
