Description
Authoritative and irreverent, sophisticated and fast paced, highly accessible and utterly enjoyable--the Beginners books bring to life complex and important ideas and theories, and describe the lives and times of the people who created them. Einstein for Beginners shows us why moving clocks run slower than stationary ones, why nothing can go faster than the speed of light--and perhaps why Albert's hair always looked like that--and follows the thoughts of this genius as he works his way toward E=mc2--the groundbreaking equation of the twentieth century.
