How to Teach Relativity to Your Dog - Thryft

Relativity explained with charming canine conversations.

If the thought of relativity brings back daunting images of confusing lectures, this book will be a fresh breath of air for you.

It's one to fetch if you've ever wished for a fun, approachable guide to the universe's most intriguing principles.
