No label defined (Q4211929)

In the book under review the author shows that it is possible to derive large part of fundamental physics by starting with a small set of notions. His approach is based on \textit{D. Finkelstein}'s `Quantum relativity' [Springer, Berlin (1996; Zbl 0869.00010)] in which the basic elements of relativity emerge naturally after using quantum logic rather than standard (set theoretic) logic. The methods are largely algebraic and do not assume spacetime metric primarily. Besides, it is shown that the Lagrangian arises after using basic tools of `Quantum relativity'. The book combines nicely modern mathematics and physics and can be interesting both for physicists and mathematicians.
