Description:
Newton's inverse square law of gravitation has been one of the cornerstones of physics ever since it was proposed 300 years ago. This book traces the history of attempts to test the predictions of Newtonian Gravity, and describes recent experimental efforts to verify both the inverse-square law and the equivalence principle. Interest in these questions have increased in recent years, as it has become recognized that deviations from Newtonian gravity could be a signal for a new fundamental force of nature. This is the first book devoted entirely to this subject, and will be useful to students and researchers.
