Book Reviews of Einstein for Beginners
Book Review: A long slog - but you get there in the end!
Summary: 4 Stars
I read this book some years ago when I was a young left-wing pinko liberal and found it fascinating!
I am now an old left-wing pinko liberal and found it a bit harder going this time. I know it's great to have historical context etc. but I wish there was more on the theories...
Anyway, an excellant read and just the thing to get young minds thinking outside the square. It's wonderful to see how quickly they can visualise the concepts, especially the moving train etc.
