User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐This interchange of letters between Elie Cartan and Albert einstein shows how science is really done questions are posed and answered raising new questions leading to new answers must read

⭐The problem discussed mainly seems to be_Rij=0which if Rij refers to the Ricci curvature tensoris or is very like the null Ricci problem that resulted in modern Calibi-Yautheory. They seems to respect each other, but not theirdifferent approaches to the mathematics involved.I got this book trying find something on theirjoint theory of spin based general relativity,but this book is about what parallel means in terms of tensorsand functions inside a spherical manifold, I think.More interesting than the context is the subtextof two of the most important men of the 20th centuryexchanging nearly polite letters like thisand having them collected and published.
