摘要：

In this work it is shown that the Brans-Dicke theory of gravity does not always go over to general relativity in the omega-->alpha limit. It is also shown, by an order of magnitude estimate, that one can get general relativity as a limit of Brans-Dicke theory when omega-->alpha, only if the trace of the energy-momentum tensor describing all fields other than the Brans-Dicke scalar field is nonzero.
