The work presumes a standard of education corresponding to that of a university matriculation examination, and, despite the shortness of the book, a fair amount of patience and force of will on the part of the reader. The main ideas are presented in the simplest and most intelligible form, and on the whole, in the sequence and connection in which they actually originated. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOVERVIEW\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat are Einstein's Radical Laws on the Universe and Cosmos?  What are the hidden realities that they reveal about the physical world?  What are the implications of these profound ideas on us and our lives today?  This series of writing by the great professor Einstein seeks to address many of these questions for the general reader.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCONTENTS\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePART I : THE SPECIAL THEORY OF RELATIVITY\u003cbr\u003e1.
