Publisher Description

In Relativity: The Special and the General Theory, Einstein describes the theories that made him famous, illuminating his case with numerous examples and a smattering of math (nothing more complex than high-school algebra). Einstein's book is not casual reading, but for those who appreciate his work without diving into the arcana of theoretical physics, Relativity will prove a stimulating read.

"My favorite chapter title - The space-time continuum of the special theory of relativity considered as a euclidean continuumMy favorite quote from the book - This non-rigid reference-body, which might appropriately be termed a "reference-mollusc".... "

    " Einstein explains to the general public his theory of relativity in a very comprehensible and entertaining manner. Definitely worth reading! "

    " This is the rare book that contains a layman's exposition of an advanced theory by the originator of that theory. It is very readable. One need only have a curious mind and high school algebra. "

    " Einstein... you are amazing. Most of your work goes way over my head, but your still cool. "

    " Obviously an excellent introduction to relativity. Admittedly difficult reading, but you can get the overall jist of what he's saying. Definitely some basic understanding of math and physics helps! "

    " Excellent book which introduces a reader into basics of Special and General Relativity. "

  • Overall Performance: 3 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 5

    " Concise and clear, but an older style of writing will make it more difficult for a modern reader to understand. Narrative explanations of mathematical models are rarely easy to grasp. This work contains many. "

  • Overall Performance: 4 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 5

    " I found the concepts really interesting, when I could understand them. I usually could, but not always, which is why it gets 4 stars rather than 5. "

  • Overall Performance: 5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5

    " A parte il testo che da il titolo al libro, questo tomo contiene molti altri testi originali di precursori della teoria (Maxwell, Reimann, Poincaré, Lorentz, ed altri), il che lo rende del tutto eccezionale. "

    " Obviously written a century ago, but still a good introductory to the influencing forces of our universe. I think I started reading this when I was 13-14. It took a little longer to understand it...with the assumption that I do now. "
