carboxamide's review
5.0
I used this book to independently learn about special relativity, having read reviews recommending it for this use case. I was very impressed. The authors of the book are very engaging, presenting the topic in a very fun and easy to understand way, filling it with relevant stories and diagrams to help understand. In some parts, the book follows a dialogue style, and it was very well done in making it easy to understand and engaging at the same time.
This book did not utilize a lot of math, but high school level math and physics are necessary - particularly basic Newtonian physics and very basic Euclidean plane geometry. If you're looking at this book, you probably already know these, maybe just not by those names.
