The ABC of Relativity

Ask a dozen people to identify a genius and chances are good that ""Einstein"" will be the first name that comes to mind. Few of them will be able to explain what ""relativity"" is if you ask them what it is.Since Russell first released his understandable manual for the general reader the fundamental laws of relativity have not altered. The Elements of Relativity is Bertrand Russell's most outstanding contribution to the popularisation of science. He guides the reader who has no background in math or physics through the nuances of Einstein's reasoning with amazing clarity. He describes the practical application of special and general relativity theories too among other things gravitational findings and the development of the hydrogen bomb in simple understandable steps.""
