Special relativity: from Einstein to strings John H. Schwarz, Patricia M. Schwarz
Publisher: Cambridge University Press

[About its He invented a theory of gravity that incorporated Einstein's early work on special relativity, which was just what Einstein was trying to do. Einstein came to the String theory predicts that the graviton should be a massless boson that carries the force of gravity. Even GR is not applicable everywhere because it fails at singularities like the centre of black holes. But this delivered the Special Relativity of Einstein, which predicted the atom bomb, and it was then dropped into the dustbin of useless knowledge because the particle school took over the money of science. €�I develop the theory of special relativity with simple mathematics. Today, each generation accepts the possibilities of quantum and string events, or that they are aspects that will lead us to the ultimate truth, and so older scientists remain along the leading edge even with the baggage of their generation's mind-set. When Einstein attempted to reconcile Newton's Law and observed reality with his theory of special relativity, he saw that special relativity only made sense when one excluded gravity he realized the equivalence principle that could help make sense of a general relativity that could account for the effects of gravity. What relativity did is expand the range of physical conditions over which the theory applied. It you want to learn about vectors, complex numbers, matrix algebra, Einstein's famous E equals MC squared, as well as some insights into string theory, it's all here. Rightmire on a journey to The Fascinating Universe of Einstein's Special Relativity, as he makes Einstein's concepts easy to comprehend. Special relativity extended the range to include high speeds, and general relativity extended it again to include high gravitational fields. Since my undergraduate days, I have been puzzled by the fact that we have Newton's laws of motion but only Einstein's theory of special relativity. Well, I've been reading a book, “Special Relativity from Einstein to Strings”, and maybe it isn't an artistic achievement, but it certainly is a well written book with an “idealistic tendancy” of its own. Einstein's theory of special relativity applies to particles moving at a constant rate but does not address their acceleration. There is no sense in which Newton was proved wrong by Einstein. By the final chapters, the reader is swimming in string theory and its successor, M-theory, and is trying to digest the complicated notion about the existence of a fifth dimension expressed in terms of mass—an idea as hard to understand as a “ Why no Einstein's laws? String theory's pre-history is a long story, which I'll tell another day — but it was first recognized as a possible theory of all elementary particles and forces, one that could resolve the conflict between quantum mechanics and Einstein's theory of gravity and include all the known forces and particles, in this paper, in 1974. 23, 2010 - Join author Robert A. Albert Einstein was a 26-year-old working in a patent office when he came up with the idea of special relativity in 1905, which would ultimately change the way we think about the world.
