Special relativity and the lapse of time

Richard T. W. ArthurW. Brian Arthur

pp. 109-137

Abstrakt

I discuss the historical origins of the idea of the relativity of motion and Einstein's and Minkowski's seminal innovations. I then show how attempts to refute the objectivity of time lapse by appeal to relativity theory fail to recognize that time lapse is tracked by Minkowski's proper time, which is invariant.
