Assuming almost no prior knowledge, it allows the student to handle all the Relativity needed for a university course, with explanations as simple, thorough, and engaging as possible.The aim is to make manageable what would otherwise be regarded as hard; to make derivations as simple as possible and physical ideas as transparent as possible. Lorentz invariants and four-vectors are introduced early on, but tensor not 606 $aSpecial relativity (Physics) 606 $aRelativity (Physics) 615 0$aSpecial relativity (Physics) 615 0$aRelativity (Physics) 676 $a530.11 700 $aSteane$b Andrew M.$01028593 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bCaOWtU 912 $a9910462528703321 996 $aRelativity made relatively easy$92450432 997 $aUNINA
