A microscopically motivated theory of glassy dynamics based on an underlying random first order transition is developed to explain the magnitude of free energy barriers far glassy relaxation. A variety of empirical correlations embodied in the concept of liquid fragility are shown to be quantitatively explained by such a model, The near universality of a Lindemann ratio characterizing the maximal amplitude of thermal vibrations within an amorphous minimum explains the Variation of fragility with a liquid's configurational heat capacity density. Furthermore, the numerical prefactor of this correlation is well approximated by the microscopic calculation, The size of heterogeneous reconfiguring regions in a viscous liquid is inferred and the correlation of nonexponentiality of relaxation with fragility is qualitatively explained. Thus the wide variety of kinetic behavior in liquids of quite disparate chemical nature reflects quantitative rather than qualitative differences in their energy landscapes.
