Relativity: The Special and the General Theory is a groundbreaking book written by Albert Einstein, first published in 1916. In this work, Einstein presents his theories of special relativity and general relativity, which revolutionized our understanding of space, time, and gravity.Special Theory of Relativity: Einstein's special theory of relativity, proposed in 1905, introduces the concept that the laws of physics are the same for all non-accelerating observers and that the speed of light in a vacuum is constant, regardless of the motion of the observer or the source of the light. This theory fundamentally altered concepts of space and time, introducing the concepts of time dilation and length contraction.General Theory of Relativity: Building upon his special theory, Einstein developed the general theory of relativity, published in 1915. This theory describes gravity as a curvature of...
