Corrections

David Finkelstein

Following are corrections I have received to my review of Pimenov’s book (April 1972):

Einstein did not find differential geometry “ready for him.” He had reinvented half of it before hearing of its existence.

Signals may propagate in Pimenov’s semi‐Riemannian spaces with arbitrarily high velocity, never “instantaneously.”

The index for which “the work pleads” was present in the original Russian.

Pimenov’s imprisonment is not the result of any publication but merely of preliminaries to publication.
