The issues explored in these papers include: (1) formulations of relativity theories in which the speed of light is not a universal constant but which are consistent with the four-dimensional symmetry of the Lorentz and Poincare? groups and with experimental results, (2) analyses and discussions by Reichenbach concerning the concepts of simultaneity and physical time from a philosophical point of view, and (3) results achieved by the union 410 0$aAdvanced series on theoretical physical science ;$vv. 8. 606 $aSymmetry (Physics) 606 $aRelativity (Physics) 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSymmetry (Physics) 615 0$aRelativity (Physics) 676 $a530.1 700 $aHsu$b J.
