Special relativity: from Einstein to strings John H. Schwarz, Patricia M. Schwarz
Publisher: Cambridge University Press

For example, long after the advent of nuclear weapons and power have vindicated Einstein, I still get detailed manuscripts from people every few weeks claiming that E=mc2 is wrong. Special relativity predicts that if you take a massive particle and keep applying forces on it, it goes faster and faster, slowly approaching the speed of light, but never quite reaching it. Lastly, a two-page spread visualizes Einstein's general theory of relativity, Einstein was right about the shortcomings of Quantum Mechanics and so therefore String Theory is also the incorrect approach. To celebrate, we'll It explains a lot of the other concepts so that you can fully grasp what string theory is. So no lengthy derivations, but I will give you a few observations, and hopefully that will be enough. Special relativity is where we get the famous formula E=mc2. What relativity did is expand the range of physical conditions over which the theory applied. Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity looks into the way that our space-time is structured, although at the time that he wrote it, he did not consider there to be unified space-time, but more on that later. Not something to be easily understood, the magazine uses a graphical example of a man measuring the speed of light on a moving train to make special relativity surprisingly tangible. How Einstein (& others) discovered Special Relativity. There is no sense in which Newton was proved wrong by Einstein. Albert Einstein, 1950 (Scientific American): "[re: the general principle of relativity] without this it would be practically impossible for anybody to hit .. Einstein (1950) - Special Relativity is Not Fundamental. An Amazon review gives my book a low rating because "General Relativity sprang full-blown from the mind of Albert Einstein", and "curved, multidimensional space underlies much of modern technology, including GPS satellites." He points to this site to show that It is a simple application of special relativity. Special relativity extended the range to include high speeds, and general relativity extended it again to include high gravitational fields. Even GR is not applicable everywhere because it fails at singularities like the centre of black holes. Einstein's theory of special relativity applies to particles moving at a constant rate but does not address their acceleration. Neither Einstein nor anyone But it is a mistake to say that curved spacetime or string theory underlies much of modern technology. Pi day (3.14) is Albert Einstein's Birthday! Einstein posited that the geometry of space is not fixed and immutable, but rather than instantaneously as in Newton's spooky “action at a distance.” And it would fully be consistent with Einstein's earlier, “special” relativity, with its slowing clocks, shrinking measuring sticks, paradoxes of the twins, and so on. A theory we have discussed before, string theory, predicts the existence of the graviton, however, in almost every other theory it runs into large problems. The versions of string theory that physicists consider promising would only include a radically simplified version of general relativity, Einstein's theory of gravity.
