<p><strong>Abstract</strong></p><p>An attainable way to understand why we must reasonably doubt about a definite aspect of Albert Einstein´s geometric theory of gravitation, when he denies the character of force for gravity, is throughout the history of Relativity Principle and Inertial Law, from its postulation by Galileo Galilei, its rectification by Newton for the infinite space without resistance to movement, its transformation in the Special Theory of Relativity to receive the Constancy Principle of the Speed of Light, and its final role in the General Theory as a way to explain gravity by means of the sole<br />curvature of space.</p><p><strong>Keywords:</strong> gravedad, inercia, movimiento, teoría, Lógica de la Representación.</p>
