Download or read book Primer of Relativity written by Michael Bodin and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2006 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Describing Einstein's work is not easy. For such a diverse subject, 'difficult' is misleading, for it depends as much on the recipient as on the content, yet based on 'selective impressions' relativity has a daunting reputation, which deters many, and has gone unquestioned for years. This book takes a critical look at that image, and by ignoring the practical needs of professionals, places relativity in a very different perspective; harder parts are less common, but often matter least for general purposes; no knowledge of mathematics at all is necessary to fully understand what relativity says and means (contrary to popular belief), and on that basis, understanding Einstein should be within the grasp of every student interested to try, and with the motivation to succeed. To achieve this aim, an approach has been adopted which places emphasis on meaning over content, with the ultimate objective that understanding is what matters most, rather than provision of facts and information. The book is aimed at a very wide range of potential readers, from complete novice to university level, with format and content material adapted accordingly. The general layout is modular, with topics classified under three categories of difficulty, to meet different levels of interest and aptitude, and these grades are identified in the contents section preceding each chapter. Readers can thus customise their choice of reading, while cross referencing and frequent summaries facilitate moving between levels. Little mathematics is included in the text (and can all be skipped), but for advanced readers, a very full selection of equations (most with derivations from first principles) has been included in a series of appendices which follow each chapter. An unusual feature is a chapter on cosmology, for those who wish to follow the logical consequences of general relativity. There is a very extensive glossary.

Download or read book Relativity An Introduction To The Special Theory written by Asghar Qadir and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1989-11-01 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most important feature in this book is the simple presentation with details of calculations. It is very easy to follow. Fairly sophisticated calculations are developed very rapidly. The presentation is logical and the detailed coverage makes this book very readable and useful. The contents develop Relativity as a modern theory of motion, starting by placing it in historical perspective and proceeding to show its logical necessity. The development of the Lorentz transformation is given using only one assumption rather than two. Right away in Chapter 3, geometry as required in Special Relativity for extension to General Relativity is introduced. This enables the use of the four-vector formalism of Minkowski. By the end of Chapter 4, the general Lorentz transformations for three-dimensional motion and their relation to four-dimensional boosts have already been explained. In Chapter 5 applications of relevance in Physics are provided. After a brief introduction to elementary electromagnetic theory, it is reformulated as a theory in four-dimensions using tensors in Chapter 6. Finally in Chapter 7, the theory is extended to deal with accelerated motion as “corrections” to Special Relativity.
