Excerpt from Relativity for All
An apology is needed for the production of a popular work on Relativity after Einstein himself has undertaken such a task. As a matter of fact, our purpose here is somewhat different from Einstein"s. This little book is written, not so much for those who wish to understand a physical theory from the point of view of a physicist, as for the large body of intelligent men and women who look on physics as one of many avenues into the secret of the Universe, and wish to know its windings in their relation to the larger field of human inquiry.
The dominant aim throughout the book has been to make the ideas definite and intelligible to the ordinary mind.
