Einstein’s Universe
CALDER, Nigel
British Broadcasting Corporation London 1979 Reprint
8vo Hard Cover Publishers original brown cloth with gilt lettering on spine. Dustwrapper: clipped, now protected in Brodart. White endpapers, no inscriptions. 178pp. profusely illustrated with b/w photographs throughout text. Pages clean and bright in firm binding. This book, published for the centenary of Einstein's birth, explains the salient ideas of relativity in plain language, taking full advantage of the latest research and the clear light that now shines upon such previously impenetrable concepts as warped space, time out joint, and the astounding energy hidden in ordinary matter. Atomic clocks prove that time runs at different rates in different places, as Einstein foretold. X-ray pulses from among the stars confirm his dictum about the speed of light. Other discoveries bear out the relativistic equations that suggest the universe has exploded. And telescopes reveal violent events far away in space for which the only explanation is an unavoidable product of einsteinian gravity: the black hole. Using examples like this Nigel Calder is able to make relativity plain in a thoroughly modern way. Very Good
