520    Relativity Lite is designed for the General Astronomy 
       sequence (PH 361-2U, SCI 315-6U) whose primary book 
       glosses over Special Relativity and General Relativity 
       while trying to explain the Cosmology that is based on 
       those subjects. Relativity Lite translates the 
       mathematical equations conventional relativity texts rely 
       upon into pictures that are readily understood and contain
       within them the mathematical essentials. This book 
       provides the comprehensive coverage needed to understand, 
       in sufficient depth, these three linked areas of our 
       reality. Readers seeking this knowledge on their own, and 
       those in other courses for nonscientists, may also find it
       helpful.
