Reimagining Time: A Light-Speed Tour of Einstein''s Theory of Relativity
English
By (author): Jeffrey Bub Tanya Bub
A quirky, funny, and accessible blend of science and art that delves into the heart of Einsteins theory of relativity
A fascinating introduction to the core concepts of special relativity. The unique illustrated format and elegant writing will appeal to readers who have not encountered these ideas before.Chad Orzel, author of How to Teach Quantum Physics to Your Dog
It was a link to Albert Einsteins 1905 paperan early attempt at explaining his revolutionary ideas on space, time, and matterthat drew Tanya Bub into his imaginative vision of the world. What particularly struck her was how Einstein interwove words and math to create clear visuals illustrating his theories. As an artist, she naturally started doodling as she worked her way through his concepts, creating drawings that intuitively demonstrated Einsteins core principles.
In Reimagining Time, Tanya Bub teams up with her father, the distinguished physicist Jeffrey Bub, to create a quirky and accessible take on one of sciences most revolutionary discoveries. Blending original art and text, they guide readerseven nonmathematiciansthrough Einsteins theory of special relativity to reveal truths about our universe: time is relative, lengths get shorter with motion, energy and mass are interchangeable, and the universe has a speed limit.
