Synopsis

Relativity Physics covers all the material required for a first course in relativity. Beginning with an examination of the paradoxes that arose in applying the principle of relativity to the two great pillars of nineteenth-century physics - electromagnetism and classical mechanics - Dr Turner shows how Einstein resolved these problems in a spectacular and brilliantly intuitive manner. The implications of Einstein's postulates are then discussed and the book concludes with a discussion of the charged particle in the electromagnetic field. The text includes applications to high-energy physics, astronomy and solid state physics. Exercises, with answers, are included for the student. This book should be of interest to first or second year undergraduates taking courses in physics.
