"Questions connected with the motion of bodies, such as the problem of gravitational radiation and the structure of sources, dominated the subsequent scientific activity of Infeld and his students. [Leopold Infeld, 1898-1968] showed that gravitational radiation is strongly inhibited by the nature of Einstein's equations, and he simplified the derivation of post-Newtonian corrections to the motion of celestial bodies. These results are collected in MOTION AND RELATIVITY (1960), a unique book on this subject, written by Infeld in collaboration with Jerzy Plebanski." - DSB, vol. VII. First Edition. Hard Cover.
