Description

This book explains Einstein's theory of relativity in an unconventional way. Chad Orzel uses conversations with his dog Emmy to explain complex concepts like length contraction and time dilation.

As Emmy chases after bunnies or squirrels, she often gets it wrong - but Orzel gently guides her towards the correct physics. With Emmy's occasional interjections, readers can learn about relativity's cosmological consequences and its impact on our understanding of space and time.

The book covers topics from relative motion to the unification of forces, making even complex ideas accessible to a wide range of readers.
