This textbook introduces the topic of special relativity, with a
particular emphasis upon light-matter interaction and the
production of light in plasma. The physics of special relativity is
intuitively developed and related to the radiative processes of
light. The book reviews the underlying theory of special
relativity, before extending the discussion to applications
frequently encountered by postgraduates and researchers in
astrophysics, high power laser interactions and the users of
specialized light sources, such as synchrotrons and free electron
lasers. A highly pedagogical approach is adopted throughout, and
numerous exercises are included within each chapter to reinforce
the presentation of key concepts and applications of the material.
