In this book, leading theorists present new contributions and
reviews addressing longstanding challenges and ongoing progress in
spacetime physics. In the anniversary year of Einstein's General
Theory of Relativity, developed 100 years ago, this collection
reflects the subsequent and continuing fruitful development of
spacetime theories. The volume is published in honour of Carl Brans
on the occasion of his 80th birthday. Carl H. Brans, who also
contributes personally, is a creative and independent researcher
and one of the founders of the scalar-tensor theory, also known as
Jordan-Brans-Dicke theory. In the present book, much space is
devoted to scalar-tensor theories. Since the beginning of the
1990s, Brans has worked on new models of spacetime, collectively
known as exotic smoothness, a field largely established by him. In
this Festschrift, one finds an outstanding and unique collection of
articles about exotic smoothness. Also featured are Bell's
inequality and Mach's principle. Personal memories and historical
aspects round off the collection.
