Includes bibliographical references and index.

Historical introduction -- Prolegomena -- Relativistic kinematics -- Applications of relativistic kinematics -- Optical phenomena -- Relativistic dynamics -- Applications of relativistic dynamics -- Minkowski's spacetime and four-vectors -- Electromagnetism -- Experiments.

This book offers a comprehensive, university-level introductionto Einstein&#x;s Special Theory of Relativity. In addition to thepurely theoretical aspect, emphasis is also given to its historical development as well as to the experiments that preceded the theory and those performed in order to test its validity. The main body of the book consists of chapters on Relativistic Kinematics and Dynamics and their applications, Optics and Electromagnetism. These could be covered in a one-semester course. A more advanced course might include the subjects examined in the other chapters of the book and its appendices. As a textbook, it has some unique characteristics: Itprovides detailed proofs of the theorems, offers abundant figuresand discusses numerous examples. It also includes a number of problems for readers to solve, the complete solutions of which are given at the end of the book. It is primarily intended for use by university students of physics, mathematics and engineering. However, as the mathematics needed is of an upper-intermediate level, the book will also appeal to a more general readership. --Back cover.
