Relativity Editorial Review

Six Not-So-Easy Pieces: Einstein’s Relativity, Symmetry, and Space-Time by Richard P Feynman is an enlightening book on the complicated ideas of Albert Einstein’s relativity, symmetry, and space-time. Feynman makes complicated ideas easy enough for any reader to understand, going beyond the math to explain in simple terms. It is a great read for physics dilettantes, but one might have to read each chapter twice to understand everything. The Kindle version of the book has impossibly small equations and graphics, hence it is recommended to get the paperback version instead.
