Lorentz","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelativity: The Special and General Theory\u003c\/strong\u003e is an   introduction to Einstein's space-bending, time-stretching theory of Relativity,   first published in December 1916. Special and General relativity explain the   structure of space time and provide a theory of gravitation, respectively.   Einstein's theories shocked the world with their counterintuitive results,   including the dissolution of absolute time. In this book, he brings a simplified   form of his profound understanding of the subject to the layperson. In the words   of Einstein: \"The present book is intended, as far as possible, to give an exact   insight into the theory of Relativity to those readers who, from a general   scientific and philosophical point of view, are interested in the theory, but   who are not conversant with the mathematical apparatus of theoretical physics.\"   The book is challenging at times but, when approached patiently, proves itself   one of the most lucid explanations of Relativity to be found anywhere. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e— Excerpted from \u003cem\u003eWikipedia, \u003c\/em\u003ethe free encyclopedia. \u003c\/p\u003e  ","brand":"MobileReference","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47157166702832,"sku":"9781607785668","price":0.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781607785668_p0.jpg?v=1763834033","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781607785668","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
