Sir Arthur Stanley Eddington (1882-1944) was an English physicist and astronomer. He was also a successful popularizer of science. Eddington was the first to theorize that fusion of hydrogen into helium was the Sun's source of energy, a key development in astrophysics. He was an early expounder and advocate of Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity. In 1919, he lead an expedition to Pr�ncipe which provided key confirmation of Einstein. "Space, Time and Gravitation: An Outline of the General Relativity Theory" is brief summary of the ideas and concepts underlying general relativity. Although written primarily for a lay audience, it includes mathematical descriptions of several key concepts. Eddington also provides an account of his expedition to Principe and its results. This book is in the Deseret Alphabet, a phonetic alphabet for writing English developed in the mid-19th century at the University of Deseret (now the University of Utah).
