About The Book:
This book is an ideal choice for undergraduate students of science and engineering looking for a comprehensive exploration of the fundamental concepts of relativity. The treatment goes beyond typical introductory coverage, offering flexibility in structure, as many sections can be used independently, reordered, or omitted.
The book features nearly 300 diagrams to help clarify concepts and includes numerous problems, most with hints and answers, making it an excellent resource for supplementary reading and self-study.
The three-part treatment covers:
-
Special Relativity: Explores topics such as the speed of light, the relative character of simultaneity, and Lorentz transformations.
-
Introductory Dynamics: Covers conservation of momentum and energy, as well as interactions between nuclei and fundamental particles.
-
General Relativity: Discusses the principle of equivalence, curved space-time, Einstein’s equations, and more.
This volume is perfect for students seeking to deepen their understanding of relativity and its implications across various scientific fields.
