SynopsisWritten by two of the field's true pioneers, Spacetime Physics can extend and enhance coverage of specialty relativity in the classroom. This thoroughly up-to-date, highly accessible overview covers microgravity, collider accelerators, satellite probes, neutron detectors, radioastronomy, and pulsars. The chapter on general relativity with new material on gravity waves, black holes, and cosmology., "... imaginative and well laid out. ... It is well provided with illustrations and worked examples." New Scientist "... concerns itself with both Einstein's special and general theories of relativity ... a valuable reference ... I highly recommend it." The Physics Teacher
