Query: terrible

I don't understand why anyone would want to use this book to study SR. It is ridiculously long winded -wasting pages to describe a paradox in elaborate detail. You're probably thinking "oh good, a physics book that's not dry"... before you take the advice of a positive reviewer, check it out from the library and see what I mean. It is so convoluted with silly detail that it's almost unreadable. If you're a high school student interested in grasping a piece of SR then MAYBE this could be of use. If you're a physics student who wants to learn something at a reasonable pace, look elsewhere.
