Since the publication of Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity in 1905, the discovery of such astronomical phenomena as quasars, pulsars, and black holes -- all intimately connected to relativity -- has provoked a tremendous upsurge of interest in the subject.This volume, a revised version of Martin Gardner's earlier Relativity for the Million, brings this fascinating topic up to date. Witty, perceptive, and easily accessible to the general reader, it is one of the clearest and most entertaining introductions to relativity ever written.Mr. Gardner offers lucid explanations of not only the special and general theories of relativity, but of the Michelson-Morley experiment, gravity and spacetime, Mach's principle, the twin paradox, models of the universe, and other topics. A new Postscript, examining the latest developments in the field, and specially written for this edition, is also included.
The clarity of the text is especially enhanced by the brilliant graphics of Anthony Ravielli, making this "by far the best layman's account of this difficult subject." -- Christian Science Monitor.

Wrong size on shirt’s tag and description!
Size: 16"-16.5" Neck 36"-37" Sleeve, Color: Dark Blue, Size: 16"-16.5" Neck 36"-37" Sleeve, Color: Dark Blue
We have ordered Van Heusen dress shirts in size 16.5 neck and 36”-37” sleeves for years. This shirt’s sleeves are 2-3” too short! The shirt is tagged wrong. I ordered the same size brand and shirt in a different color and you can see the difference in the sleeve’s length in the photo! Annoyed I need to return the defective item.

Excellent shirt that compares to box brand stores and fits very well.
Size: 15"-15.5" Neck 34"-35" Sleeve, Color: Light Blue
I recently lost 44 pounds and all of my dress shirts no longer fit correctly. These are an excellent replacement. I am 6'2" and now 180 lbs. These are a perfect fit and are slim where they need to be and don't bunch up on the sides, and they are super comfy.
Bottom of the shirt is long enough to keep tucked in even when bending over. Sleeve length is decent, they do slide up past my wrists when doing extreme reaches, but are right at the hand/wrist connector when in an idle pose.
They did have a weird chemical smell when I first put them on, but let them air out when you first put them on. They are also very wrinkled, so make sure you have an iron around. No status on durability, but the material is not super thin, its thick like Target shirts.
