The Philosophy of Space and Time - (Dover Books on Physics) by Hans Reichenbach (Paperback)

This book provides a comprehensive and insightful exploration of non-Euclidean geometries, covering topics such as the foundations of geometry, theory of time, and the consequences of Einstein's relativity.

With its careful and complete exposition, this book is ideal for those familiar with philosophy of science or intermediate mathematics.

The author presents a detailed analysis of the problem of physical geometry, universal and differential forces, visualization of geometries, spaces with non-Euclidean topological properties, geometry as a theory of relations, and much more.

Additionally, the book delves into the difference between space and time, simultaneity, time order, unreal sequences, and the combined theory of space and time.

The author also discusses the construction of the space-time metric, Lorentz and Einstein contractions, addition theorem of velocities, principle of equivalence, and much more.

This book is a must-read for anyone interested in modern science and philosophy.
