Introduction to Special Relativity Paperback – 7 February 1979

Good book

This is the best introduction to Special Relativity ever. It is a standard approach (unlike Spacetime Physics by Taylor & Wheeler which also is superb), but a superb one, highly readable. I always recomend this little book to beginners.

Excellent graphics and build-up of theory. Derivation of energy equation is first-rate. Resnick has really constructed meaningful derivations of results instead of using tired arguments that only 'look' plausible.
