Informationen zum Autor Leo Sartori is Professor of Physics at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Klappentext "An extraordinarily well-written, well-researched, and carefully thought out piece of work. . . . The discussions of the paradoxes of relativity and of cosmology are the best discussions of these topics at an elementary level that I have ever seen."—Roger A. Freedman, University of California, Santa Barbara Zusammenfassung Designed for non-specialists with no prior knowledge of physics and only reasonable proficiency with algebra, this book explains Einstein's theory of relativity. Diagrammed and with an emphasis on logical structure, this book guides readers through concepts of relative time and relative space.
