Note publique d'information : This book is an introduction to the theories of special and general relativity. The
target audience are physicists, engineers and applied scientists who are looking for
an understandable introduction to the topic - without too much new mathematics. The
fundamental equations of Einsteins theory of special and general relativity are derived
using matrix calculus, without the help of tensors. This feature makes the book special
and a valuable tool for scientists and engineers with no experience in the field of
tensor calculus. In part I the foundations of special relativity are developed, part
II describes the structure and principle of general relativity. Part III explains
the Schwarzschild solution of spherical body gravity and examines the "Black Hole"
phenomenon. Any necessary mathematical tools are user friendly provided, either directly
in the text or in the appendices
