TEXTBOOK
"The author's key idea is to discuss pre-relativistic physics in a
relativistc way, thus allowing the reader to become gradually
accustomed to concepts ...In this respect, McComb's book is unique.
...His presentation is clear, rigorous and concise without going
into unneccessary mathematical complexities. ...examples and
diagrams are used making the book easy to follow and attractive.
...The book also contains a substantial number of exercises of
varying
difficulty and provides their full solutions instead of simply
citing the answers. To the earnest student, this should offer a
hands-on test of his understanding of the theory. ...a
comprehensive book that
also provides the undergraduate student with a smooth transition
from the classical world to Einstein's theory." Contemporary
