Focusing on a systematic and constructive approach to Special Relativity, this book addresses common challenges faced by students due to the traditional Newtonian perspective. It introduces four-dimensional mathematics, including Lorentz metrics and relativistic tensors, while preparing readers for General Relativity. The text is concise and complements existing literature on the subject. Additionally, it offers a wealth of solved problems in kinematics and dynamics, serving as valuable resources for both students and educators to enhance understanding of relativistic concepts.

The textbook systematically develops Special Relativity, providing students with a deep understanding of this essential physics topic. The updated edition features new sections on relativistic fluids, kinematics, and four-acceleration. An expanded problems and solutions section enhances learning, while historical context is integrated throughout the text to enrich the educational experience.
