ITS ABOUT TIME - UNDERSTANDING EINSTEINS RELATI...

David Mermin's new book is a gem. Requiring nothing more than a basic understanding of algebra
it provides the clearest and most insightful treatment of special relativity I've ever
encountered. Students new to special relativity should learn it from this text  those already
familiar with the subject should read this book to enhance their understanding and (of equal
importance) to experience the craft of a master teacher.--Brian Greene  Columbia University
This book includes material that is intellectually innovative and comes as a surprise even to
specialists in the field. Its uniqueness  its insights  and its wonderful style will likely
make it a classic.--Richard Price  University of Utah Well-written  chatty and engaging  this
book will be accessible to scientists and non-scientists alike.--Robert Geroch  University of
Chicago The reader who works through this book carefully will have quite a good understanding
of what special relativity is all about. It offers a fresh approach to the subject.--Michael
Strauss  Princeton University
