Einstein\'s Space-Time: An Introduction to Special and General Relativity is a
textbook addressed to students in physics and other people interested in
Relativity and a history of physics. The book contains a complete account of
Special Relativity that begins with the historical analysis of the reasons that
led to a change in our manner of regarding the space and time. The first
chapters are aimed to afford a deep understanding of the relativistic spacetime
and its consequences for Dynamics. The chapter about covariant formulation
includes among its topics the concepts of volume and hypersurfaces in manifolds,
energy-momentum tensor of a fluid, and prepares the language for General
Relativity. The last two chapters are devoted to an introduction of General
Relativity and Cosmology in a modern approach connected with the latest
discoveries in these areas.
