Schnitt und Seiten sind sauber und frisch. Besitzersignatur auf dem fliegenden Vorsatz. This book originated in the notes of lectures given over a number of years in graduate courses at the University of Toronto and elsewhere. The basic idea is to present the essentials of relativity from the Minkowskian point of view, that is, in terms of the geometry of space-time. This geometrical approach is used to some extent in all expositions of relativity, but I have emphasised it more than is customary, because it is to me (and I think to many others) they key which unlocks many mysteries.
