1923. In this excellent exposition, Charles Steinmetz, one of America's great electrical geniuses, successfully translated the complex mathematical reasoning at the heart of the theory into language that even the layman can follow. Using analogies, examples, and comparisons as substitutes for intricate formulas and experiments, he has produced a carefully written, scientifically accurate statement of the Einstein's theory of relativity and its fascinating conclusions and deductions which involves only elementary mathematics.

Four Lectures on Relativity and Space
Very good survey of cosmology as it regards the age of the universe. This book does a good job of explaining why cosmologists are so confident that the universe is 13.7 billion years old. Oops, was that a spoiler? The author does a good job of explaining several details that are glossed over in other, poorer tellings of the history of science. For example, I now feel like I understand the reason for the early confusion about the value of the Hubble constant; namely that there are multiple types of Cepheids, and there differences were not appreciated at first.
