AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Rare reference edition with an enigmatic historical provenance.
• Author: Hendrik Antoon Lorentz (Posthumous edition)
• Title: Relativity Theory: Lectures on Theoretical Physics at Leiden University (Volume IV)
• Year: 1929
• Language: German
This copy features an important handwritten presentation inscription (over 20 words) on the flyleaf, dated 1929, with a signature yet to be identified (see pictures).
As Hendrik Lorentz passed away in 1928, this 1929 dedication was most likely written by one of his eminent physicist colleagues, a successor at Leiden University, or a leading contemporary researcher in the field of relativity. Further graphological and historical research will allow the buyer to uncover the exact and potentially prestigious provenance of this book.
