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. 542 1 |fThis work is licensed under the Creative Commons Atribution-NonCommercia-ShareAlikel 4.0 International License (CC BY-NC)|uhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/ by-nc-sa/4.0 590 Promoted: Local to Global Cooperative|bOpen Textbook Library 650 0 General relativity (Physics)|vTextbooks. 650 0 Special relativity (Physics)|vTextbooks. 650 0 Astronomy|vTextbooks. 650 0 Astrophysics|xStudy and teaching (Higher) 650 0 Cosmology. 650 7 cosmology.|2aat 650 7 Astronomy.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00819673 650 7 Cosmology.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00880600 650 7 General relativity (Physics)|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00939815 650 7 Special relativity (Physics)|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01128981 655 7 Textbooks.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01423863 914 on1190659995 994 92|bSTJ
