Professor Kim Chan-Ju’s Solitary Physics: Special Relativity - My Time Does Not Flow Like Yours

 

The Special Theory of Relativity: A theory that overturns common sense and empirical notions of time and space. It is based on the principle of special relativity and the constancy of the speed of light.

 

“Why should I know this?” It is what we all think when we confront Einstein’s “Special Theory of Relativity,” which makes our heads ache just thinking about it!
But did you know that the theory is the “core theory” that enabled modern material civilization? It was this special relativity that influenced much of the philosophy, literature, and art that we encounter in our daily lives!
If special relativity is still a bit of a mystery to you, you should definitely read this book. It is written in a simple and friendly way so that anyone without special knowledge can understand it!

 

“Special relativity is a magical theory. (…) If you ever have a moment where you get even a 1% glimpse of what it means, you will never forget that feeling.” - from the book

 

It is a book that walks you through the whole experience of thinking like a physicist.
Understand special relativity, and you will never see the world the way you used to!
