"In a remarkable and unusual collaboration [Mook and Vargish] offer
us Inside Relativity.... Happily, for all its seriousness of
intent, Mook and Vargish's book has a refreshing lightness,
imparting at once an air of easy reading (it is very well written)
and a momentum that propels one from opening enigma to closing
coda.... The pseudo-paradoxes and quasi-conundrums of the theory
are delightfully illustrated."---Lane Hughston, The Times Higher
Education Supplement
"This outstanding book provides an excellent exposition on
relativity with virtually no mathematics. Both special and general
relativity are disclosed along with some information on the
contributors and their personalities.... The book is well suited to
nonscience majors. Nevertheless, a science major would also benefit
from reading it because of its beautiful development of basic
concepts."---David Fink, Science Books & Films
