Description
This textbook by Puri offers an in-depth examination of the Special Theory of Relativity, one of the most pivotal theories in modern physics. The book systematically explores Einstein’s groundbreaking concepts that fundamentally changed our understanding of space, time, and motion.
Starting from classical mechanics, the author builds a logical progression toward relativistic principles, covering topics such as the constancy of the speed of light, time dilation, length contraction, and the equivalence of mass and energy. The mathematical framework is presented with clarity, making complex concepts accessible to students and researchers.
Each chapter includes detailed explanations, worked examples, and problems that reinforce understanding. The book bridges theoretical physics and practical applications, demonstrating how relativity impacts modern technology and our comprehension of the universe. Published by Pearson Education India, this is an essential resource for physics students, educators, and anyone seeking to understand the foundations of contemporary physics.
