Description: From the preface: This book is intended, as far as possible, to give an exact insight into the theory of relativity to those readers who, from a general scientific and philosophical point of view, are interested in the theory, but who are not conversant with the mathematical apparatus of theoretical physics. The author has spared no pains in his endeavor to present the main ideas in the simplest and most intelligible form, and on the whole in the sequence and connection in which they originated. I make no pretence of having withheld from the reader the difficulties which are inherent to the subject. I have purposely treated the empirical physical foundations of the theory in a step motherly fashion, so that readers unfamiliar with physics may not feel like the wanderer who is unable to see the forest for the trees. Made the book ring someone a few happy hours of suggestive thought!
