Relativity in Curved Spacetime: Life without special relativity
by Eric Baird (Author)
"Relativity theory has become one of the icons of Twentieth Century
science. It's reckoned to be a difficult subject, taught as a layered
series of increasingly difficult mathematics and increasingly abstract
concepts. We're told that relativity theory is supposed to be this
complicated and counter-intuitive. But how much of this historical
complexity is really necessary? Can we bypass the interpretations and
paradoxes and pseudoparadoxes of Einstein's special theory and jump
directly to a deeper and more intuitive description of reality? What
if curvature is a fundamental part of physics, and a final theory of
relativity shouldn't reduce to Einstein's "flat" 1905 theory //on
principle//? "Relativity..." takes us on a whistlestop tour of
Twentieth Century physics - from black holes, quantum mechanics,
wormholes and the Big Bang to the workings of the human mind, and
asks: what would physics look like without special relativity?"
