Indeed, equipped with geometric intuition and a facility with abstract arguments, he is in a position to deal directly with the general, currently accepted models used in relativity without being handicapped by the prejudices that inevitably come with years of Newtonian training in the standard physics curriculum. However, this shortcut does involve a price: one cannot really see the diversity of special caseehind the deceptively simple foundation without spending more time than a mathematics student normally can or should. We have felt for a long time that a serious effort should be made by physicists to communicate with mathematicians somewhat along the line of thiook. We started with the aim of keg the physics honest, keg th9 mathematics honest, and keg the logical distinction between the two straight. But we were ill-prepared for the attendant trauma of such an undertaking. 内容提要 While using thiook iclasses, we found that our canonical reader calearnonquantum physics rather quickly.
