Relativity theory assumes locality, without accounting for the observer's past history. This book introduces nonlocality, or history dependence, into relativity theory. Inertia and gravitation are deeply tied, suggesting gravity may be nonlocal. The gravitational memory of past events must then be taken into account.

Autorenporträt
Bahram Mashhoon has spent his academic career working on relativity and gravitation. This book is the culmination of his work at the University of Missouri in Columbia over the past thirty years. He completed his Ph.D. at Princeton University under the supervision of John A. Wheeler. As an undergraduate, he attended the University of California at Berkeley, where he was mentored in physics by Emilio G. Segrè. Born in Tehran, Mashhoon left Iran in 1966 to study physics in the US.
