The Adventure of Physics Vol. II Relativity
This book is written for anybody who is curious about nature and motion. Curiosity about how people, animals, things, images and empty space move leads to many adventures. This volume presents the best of them in the domains of fast, intense and distant motion: relativity and cosmology.
