Einstein's theories of relativity
This fabulous new series takes key scientific developments from the last century and investigates how they came about, their creation or discovery, and their long-term effects. Each book places the development in the context of its time, to increase awareness of some of the amazing discoveries that have helped to shape the world today, and the key people behind each of these scientific milestones.
Einstein's Theories of Relativity looks at the life and times of the man himself and the beliefs about the laws of physics prior to his theories. It explains what relativity is, and how we can understand it in relation to our everyday lives, before investigating in detail the theories of Special and General Relativity.
The book goes on to show how these amazing ideas opened up a whole new understanding of universal forces - from the power in the nucleus of an atom to the way massive bodies in space behave.
