Retarded Action-at-a-Distance: The Change of Force with Motion is a 1982 book by the physicist G. Burniston Brown, published by Cortney Publications.
Overview
Brown develops an account of electromagnetic and gravitational forces based on retarded action-at-a-distance — forces that act directly between bodies but propagate with a finite delay — rather than on field theory or Einsteinian relativity. He shows how the apparent change of force with the motion of the interacting bodies can be derived within this framework, presenting it as a physically clearer alternative to special relativity.
