Abstract
As an important sequel to his first paper on relativity, Einstein’s extensive discussion of the subject in the 1907 issue of Jahrbuch der Radioaktivit?t und Elektronik, including a first exposition of his embryonic ideas on gravitation, is of intrinsic as well as considerable historical interest. In this, the first of three parts dealing with Einstein’s essay, a translation is presented of the Introduction and of Part I, which is concerned with relativistic kinematics.Keywords
