Excellent- More about Solved Problems and Systematic Introduction to Special Relativity
The book is designed to provide a systematic and constructive introduction to the basic structure of Special Relativity, with a focus on kinematics and dynamics. It introduces four-dimensional mathematics, relativistic tensors, and prepares the transition to General Relativity. The presentation is concise and does not replace a book on Special Relativity, but provides a large number of solved in-detail problems that can be used in the class by teachers as working examples or problem sheets.
Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 485 pages

Special Relativity is often taught in undergraduate physics classes using simplistic Newtonian concepts, which can make it difficult for students to understand and solve relativistic problems. This book aims to provide a systematic and constructive approach to the theory, introducing four-dimensional mathematics, relativistic tensors, and preparing the transition to General Relativity. The presentation is concise and does not replace a book on Special Relativity, but the large number of problems provides a valuable resource for students to familiarize themselves with the relativistic "world". These problems can be used in the class by teachers as working examples or problem sheets.
