In this Element, the author offers a comprehensive interpretation of general relativity, describing its potential reality, internal structure, and differences from previous theories. The aim is to shape research agendas for physics philosophers, graduate students, and academics. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.
This Element provides a somewhat comprehensive interpretation of general relativity, a description of what reality would be like if the theory were true. This concerns (i) what possibilities it represents, (ii) the internal structure of those possibilities and their interrelations, and, to some extent, (iii) how those possibilities differ from what's come before. By providing an interpretive foil that one can amplify or amend, it aspires to shape the research agenda in the foundations of general relativity for established philosophers of physics, graduate students searching for work in these topics, and other interested academics. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.
