Relativity is the study of motion at speeds approaching the speed of light. At these extremely high speeds particles behave in non-intuitive fashion, and hence the subject suffers from the myth that it is difficult. In order to overcome this barrier Dynamics and relativity approaches the subject from the point of view of more 'standard', classical mechanics, and demonstrates that the theory of relativity is only a natural extension of the more familiar equations. The book gives a full and clear account of the theory of special relativity, with numerous worked examples and exercises, and provides the student with enough knowledge to understand the theory of black holes.
