In the anniversary year of Einstein's General Theory of Relativity, developed 100 years ago, this collection reflects the subsequent and continuing fruitful development of spacetime theories. The volume is published in honour of Carl Brans on the occasion of his 80th birthday. Carl H. Brans, who also contributes personally, is a creative and independent researcher and one of the founders of the scalar-tensor theory, also known as Jordan-Brans-Dicke theory. In the present book, much space is devoted to scalar-tensor theories. Since the beginning of the 1990s, Brans has worked on new models of spacetime, collectively known as exotic smoothness, a field largely established by him. In this Festschrift, one finds an outstanding and unique collection of articles about exotic smoothness. Also featured are Bell's inequality and Mach's principle. Personal memories and historical aspects round off the collection. 410 0$aFundamental Theories of Physics,$x0168-1222 ;$v183 606 $aGravitation 606 $aCosmology 606 $aPhysics 606 $aClassical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19070 606 $aCosmology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22049 606 $aHistory and Philosophical Foundations of Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P29000 615 0$aGravitation. 615 0$aCosmology. 615 0$aPhysics. 615 14$aClassical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theory. 615 24$aCosmology. 615 24$aHistory and Philosophical Foundations of Physics. 676 $a530.11 702 $aAsselmeyer-Maluga$b Torsten$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254634903321 996 $aAt the Frontier of Spacetime$92522533 997 $aUNINA
