在《广义相对论和牛顿引力理论基础专题》一书中，大卫·B·马伦特介绍了广义相对论的基本逻辑-数学结构，并讨论了一些关于广义相对论基础及其与牛顿引力理论关系的专题。这些专题包括牛顿理论(也称为牛顿-卡坦理论)的几何化表述，广义相对论中的旋转概念，以及哥德尔时空。这本书的亮点之一是一个不去定理，它可以被理解为表明广义相对论中没有完全符合我们经典直觉的轨道旋转标准。“专题”是为数学物理和科学哲学的学生和研究人员准备的。
In "Topics in the Foundations of General Relativity and Newtonian Gravitation Theory", David B. Malament presents the basic logical-mathematical structure of general relativity and considers a number of special topics concerning the foundations of general relativity and its relation to Newtonian gravitation theory. These special topics include the geometrized formulation of Newtonian theory (also known as Newton-Cartan theory), the concept of rotation in general relativity, and Godel spacetime. One of the highlights of the book is a no-go theorem that can be understood to show that there is no criterion of orbital rotation in general relativity that fully answers to our classical intuitions. "Topics" is intended for both students and researchers in mathematical physics and philosophy of science.
