The book is a very good discussion on Einstein's Theory of Relativity. It is essentially a compilation of essays on the theory by appropriately qualified people from different regions. Limited by rules restricting each easy to a certain amount of words (3000), the essayists make a good job of attempting to explain the theory in as simple a language as possible. However, the introduction to the essays by the editor itself is long drawn-out and one wants to get to the essays. Also, as much sincere and commendable the efforts of the essayists are to make it simple, those who do not like Physics much may find it very hard. Unfortunately, the book does not excite an interest in the topic other than to those who are already otherwise interested.
