Agradecimentos: To the undergraduate and graduate students who followed our courses on Relational Mechanics, Mach’s Principle, Weber’s Electrodynamics and Cosmology, for the many constructive remarks they presented. To our undergraduate and Ph.D. students who are developing researches in these areas. To our friends who are giving us support to continue this work. In special we wish to thank those to whom we gave a first version of this book: C. Roy Keys, Thomas E. Phipps Jr., A. Ghosh, D. Roscoe, A. Martin, R. de A. Martins, M. A. Bueno, W. M. Vieira, M. A. de Faria Rosa, A. Zylbersztajn, D. S. L. Soares, J. I. Cisneros, H. C. Velho, D. Gardelli, J. A. Hernandez and J. E. Lamesa. The suggestions and ideas which we received contributed greatly to the improvement of the book. To the following Publishers and individuals for granting permission to quote from their publications: University of California Press (I.
