General Relativity – An Einstein Centenary Survey
Abstract
S W Hawking and W Israel (eds) 1979 Cambridge: Cambridge University Press xviii + 919 pp price £37 The stream of books which have appeared to commemorate the Einstein centenary can leave no doubt as to the awe in which his contributions to modern physical thought are still held. It is a nice touch that the preface to this volume should contain a facsimile of the letter from Clerk Maxwell, who died one hundred years ago (an event which appears to have gone almost unnoticed), concerning the possibility that anomalies in the motion of the Jovian moons might be used to detect motion through the aether: a letter which was to catch the eye of one Albert Michelson and change the course of physics so dramatically.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
