Gravitation and inertia / Ignazio Ciufolini and John Archibald Wheeler. - Princeton, N.J. : Princeton University Press, �1995. - 1 online resource (xi, 498 pages) : illustrations - Princeton series in physics . - Princeton series in physics. .
Includes bibliographical references and indexes.
A first tour -- Einstein geometrodynamics -- Tests of Einstein geometrodynamics -- Cosmology, standard models, and homogeneous rotating models -- The initial-value problem in Einstein geometrodynamics -- The gravitomagnetic field and its measurement -- Some highlights of the past and a summary of geometrodynamics and inertia.

Einstein's standard and battle-tested geometric theory of gravity - spacetime tells mass how to move and mass tells spacetime how to curve - is expounded in this book by Ignazio Ciufolini and John Wheeler. They give special attention to the theory's observational checks and to two of its consequences: the predicted existence of gravitomagnetism and the origin of inertia (local inertial frames) in Einstein's general relativity - inertia here arises from mass there.
