Résumé

Assuming the existence of a fundamental aether frame and the anisotropy of the one way speed of light in the Earth frame, two facts supported by theoretical arguments (see chapters 2 and 8) and repeatedly confirmed today by experiment, J. Levy derives a set of space-time transformations that are more general than the Lorentz-Poincare transformations. These are demonstrated to be consistent, in that:

They reduce to the Lorentz-Poincare transformations when one of the two frames under consideration is the fundamental frame.
They show how systematic errors of measurement due to Lorentz contraction, clock retardation, and unreliable clock synchronization explain why the speed of light is paradoxically always found to be constant, even though it is actually anisotropic.
Conventional relativity theory leads to inconsistencies that are removed by the present theory.

The implications for fundamental physics are shown to be wide-reaching.

From Galileo to Lorentz...and Beyond draws conclusions from lectures given by the author, and from two books and several papers published in collections of essays devoted to relativity.

The ideas developed in this text have received enthusiastic support from many renowned physicists.

"I am in complete agreement with the essentials of the views expressed in this text, and give a positive assessment of the content."
