This textbook develops Special Relativity in a systematic way and
offers problems with detailed solutions to empower students to gain
a real understanding of this core subject in physics. This new
edition has been thoroughly updated and has new sections on
relativistic fluids, relativistic kinematics and on
four-acceleration. The problems and solution section has been
significantly expanded and short history sections have been
included throughout the book. The approach is structural in the
sense that it develops Special Relativity in Minkowski space
following the parallel steps as the development of Newtonian
Physics in Euclidian space. A second characteristic of the book is
that it discusses the mathematics of the theory independently of
the physical principles, so that the reader will appreciate their
role in the development of the physical theory. The book is
intended to be used both as a textbook for an advanced
undergraduate teaching course in Special Relativity but also as a
reference book for the future.
