Special Relativity and How it Works
Comments on the previous Fayngold book 'Special Relativity and Motions Faster than Light':"... as serious and accurate, as a scientific publication, and as absorbing and entertaining as a good scientific popularization. Among hundreds books on relativity this one is special." (Prof. Edward Parilis, California Inst. of Technology, Pasadena, USA)"... supplementary reading material to the standard texts, that expands on the concepts without getting hyper-specialized" (D. Green, The New School University, NY, USA)"... the physics community will enthusiastically receive this book and [...] it will be widely adopted by physics and engineering teachers as a complementary textbook." (S. Piatek, New Jersey Inst. of Techn., USA)"Dr. Fayngold knows how to tell a story." (S. Piatek, New Jersey Inst. Of Techn.)"Dr. Moses Fayngold has written an extremely interesting book on special relativity and what happens in theory when objects travel at speeds faster-than-light. Undergraduates and graduate students will find his vivid detailed examples very helpful in learning relativity and in working out many fascination paradoxes of relativity - including both the familiar "twin paradox" and less-familiar apparant contradictions of relativistic puzzles." (Dr. Stephan Rosen, Director Scientific Career Transitions, NY.)"To sum up: the book covers all aspects of superluminal phenomena." (Norbert Dragon, General Relativity and Gravitation, vol. 36, 2004)
