Relational Mechanics • A new mechanics intended to replace newtonian mechanics and also Einstein’s theories of relativity. • It implements Mach’s principle quantitatively based on Weber’s force for gravitation and the principle of dynamical equilibrium. • It explains Newton’s bucket experiment with the concave figure of the water being due to a gravitational interaction between the water and the distant galaxies when in relative rotation. • It is intended for physicists, engineers, mathematicians, historians, philosophers of science and students.

Presents a new mechanics that replaces Einstein's theories of relativity and Implements Mach's principle quantitatively based on Weber's relational law and the principle of dynamical equilibrium. The theory explains Newton's bucket experiment as due to gravitational interaction between the water and the distant universe when in relative motion. The book is intended for physicists, engineers, mathematicians, historians, philosophers of science and students.
