reviewed Time, Space, Stars and Man: The Story of the Big Bang on February 25, 2016
Time, Space, Stars and Man
Fine book for beginners of physics background. It did not go so deep into the topic. It explains relativity in chronological order of discoveries and also gives its historical background. Even for people with no background in mathematics and physics, it is interesting in the way, historical facts and concepts are cogently described.
