About the book

Relates man's search from the sixteenth century to the present for a physics to describe the dynamics of a universe in motion.

First sentence: Odd as it may seem, most people's views about motion are part of a system of physics that was proposed more than 2000 years ago and was experimentally shown to be inadequate at least 1400 years ago.
