Abstract
The underlying idea in Mach's principle is that the origin of inertia or mass of a particle is a dynamical quantity determined by the environment, in particular the rest of the matter in the universe. In this article, we discuss the role of this idea in the Brans{Dicke theory of gravitation and the Hoyle Narlikar cosmology.
