Description
Why does time pass more slowly as you travel faster? How do speeding objects get shorter and heavier? Can you really reach a star four light years away in only three years? Is space really curved? In this brilliant pocket book, illustrated with numerous worked examples and helpful original diagrams, physicist Oliver Linton reveals the truly astonishing nature of the spacetime continuum we all inhabit. If you have ever wanted to think like Einstein, this is the book for you.
