From inside dust jacket: In this fascinating, very readable book Dr. Evett "humanizes" relativity theory for the non-math-oriented reader by reversing the conventional -- and highly abstract -- approach to the topic, and keeping the asthmatics to a minimum. ... The first third of the book covers the derivations of the fundamental space-time consequences of relativity, and the remainder is devoted to a very detailed discussion of informative examples and applications of those consequences. A number of practical exercise -- with their answers -- are given in the appendices. Arthur Evertt has been teaching the concepts of relativity for more than a quarter of a century as a member of the physics faculties at Yale University, Washington State University, the University of Arizona and for the past four years at California State University , Dominguez hills.
