Einstein’s concerns are analysed in the book From Galileo to Lorentz... and beyond. As demonstrated in the book, conventional relativity fails to answer several fundamental questions. A new set of space-time transformations is derived that cover a wider range of facts than the Lorentz transformations, and allow us to answer questions that are unresolved by conventional relativity. The implications for fundamental physics are far reaching.

The ideas developed in this text have received enthusiastic support from many renowned physicists.

"I am in complete agreement with the essentials of the views expressed in this text, and give a positive assessment of the content." J.P Vigier, Laboratory of Gravitation and Cosmology, University of Paris VI

From the Author's Preface

This book draws conclusions from lectures given by the author at various conferences, and from several articles published in collections of essays on relativity theory. Some of the ideas presented here arise from these earlier works, though they may not have been explicitly stated before. The book is inspired in part by the works of Simon Prokhovnik, which represent a fundamental step in the understanding of the theories of space and time . Nevertheless, the reader will appreciate that, beyond a certain point, it departs from Prokhovnik’s views.

The reasons for this new course will be explained in detail. We leave the result to the reader’s judgment.

The manuscript presents a number of unconventional ideas. We have done our best to refute them, but in the end we find ourselves obliged to accept them as factual. Although we have criticized some of their views, we would like to pay homage to all our predecessors, without whom this manuscript could have not seen the light of day, in particular to Lorentz, Einstein and Poincaré.
