An Introduction to Special Relativity

Synopsis

In 1905, Albert Einstein astounded the scientific world when he proposed a theory that would become known as the special theory of relativity. Einstein's theory revolutionized the fundamental concepts of time and space, demonstrated the equivalence between mass and energy, and completely changed the face of modern physics.

Despite its enormous importance, the theory of special relativity has remained largely unknown to the public interested in the scientific revolutions of the twentieth century. This book presents the theory of special relativity in a way that any student of the natural sciences can understand the theory itself, the crisis that led to its emergence, and its dramatic impact on the world of science. The book takes the reader on a fascinating, yet entertaining, journey of discovery and understanding of the theory of special relativity.
