Edition Notes

"First published: 1931."
"The first part of this book contains a somewhat amplified draft of the lecture with which I began my ordinary university course for the year 1921-22...My own interest is centered particularly in the appendix, which gives a brief account of a philosophical interpretation of the general significance latent in Einstein's theory of physics."--Pref.
