A review by haaris
Six Not-So-Easy Pieces: Einstein's Relativity, Symmetry, and Space-Time by Richard P. Feynman

5.0

A beautiful book. This is a selection from Feynman's lectures specifically covering Einstein's Special and General Theories of Relativity. The treatment is involved; not at an unreachable technical level but one needs to take some paper with pencil to enjoy the content as Feynman explains some profound and extraordinary physics.

In a time of excessive work, night reads like this give a glimpse of something far more eternal and magnificent than what can be seen in normal life. And I am grateful for it.
