    Gravitation and Special Relativity

    Introduction

    In 1893 Oliver Heaviside published a paper [3] entitled "A Gravitational and Electromagnetic Analogy" in which he noted the similarities between the gravitational and electromagnetic fields. "Now, bearing in mind the successful manner in which Maxwell's localization of electric and magnetic energy in his ether lends itself to theoretical reasoning," he wrote, "the suggestion is very natural that we should attempt to localize gravitational energy in a similar manner, its density to depend upon the square of the intensity of the force, especially because the law of the inverse squares is involved throughout." Heaviside's attempt at a field theory of gravitation was followed by Lorentz (1900) [6] and Poincaré (1905) [11].

    Those attempts were abandoned with the success of Einstein's general theory of relativity, which is geometric in nature, and highly nonlinear. Einstein maintained that gravita
