Description

Introduction to Relativity is intended to teach physics and astronomy majors at the freshman, sophomore or upper-division levels how to think about special and general relativity in a fundamental, but accessible, way. Designed to render any reader a “master of relativity”, everything on the subject is comprehensible and derivable from first principles. The book emphasizes problem solving, contains abundant problem sets, and is conveniently organized to meet the needs of both student and instructor.Simplicity: the book teaches space and time in relativity in a physical fashion with minimal mathematicsConciseness: the book teaches relativity by emphasizing the basic simplicity of the principles at workVisualization: space-time diagrams (Minkowski) illustrate phenomena from simultaneity to the resolution of the twin paradox in a concrete fashionWorked problems: two chapters of challenging problems solved in several ways illustrate and teach the principlesProblem sets: each chapter is accompanied by a full set of problems for the student that teach the principles and some new phenonmena

User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐Delivery was quick. The condition of the book was as described.

⭐Un ottimo libro, copre molti degli argomenti che vengono trattati anche nei corsi universitari di fisica ma ad un livello accessibile anche a chi non è un fisico. Nonostante ciò mantiene un buon rigore. Un po’ costoso (178 pagine incluse referenze bibliografiche) ma consigliato.
