	[~~http://projecteuclid~~.~~org/DPubS/Repository/1~~.~~0/Disseminate Contemporary review]~~ by ~~Dr.~~ Harry Bateman~~, <em>~~Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society~~</em>, V28, N6, p. 318 ~~(1922).		'''''The Absolute Relations of Time and Space''''' is a 1921 book by the physicist and mathematician [[Alfred A Robb]], published by Cambridge University Press.

			==Overview==

			The book is a concise restatement of the axiomatic, causal-order approach to the geometry of space-time that Robb had set out at length in ''[[A Theory of Time and Space]]'' (1914). Starting from the single primitive relation of "conical order" (one event being ''after'' another when it lies in its forward light cone), Robb derives the metrical structure of relativistic space and time. It was reviewed by the mathematician Harry Bateman in the ''Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society'' (1922).

			==About the author==

			Alfred Arthur Robb (1873–1936) was a British (Northern Irish) physicist and mathematician known for his axiomatic, causal foundation of relativistic space-time — an approach that anticipated the modern concept of the causal structure of spacetime.
