"I was floored by this work. If taken slow I feel that any person of reasonable intelligence can understand the concepts that Prof. Einstein puts forth on the laws that govern time and space. This monumental work is, to me, less like science and more like poetry."
"Anyone equipped with high school algebra can read an enjoy this book. Einstein is a very clear and concise writer, making his exposition and arguments almost conversationally. The special theory only considers cases where things are moving at constant speeds. This assumption makes all the math very simple. Read it and enjoy it!"
