摘要

Many years ago I was asked to write a book for the 'average teenager' explaining Einstein's theories of relativity. Being naive, and not knowing any average teenagers, I took up the challenge. I thought that I had managed rather well in providing a simple account, until I met adult readers and evening-class students who told me how difficult they had found my book. Well, perhaps the subject is difficult. Hermann Bondi used to say that the public would not understand relativity until there were relativis-tic toys to play with. Today, computer games could play a role in teaching younger students, and lectures with animations on the web could help a more general audience. But we still turn to explanations of relativity in print.
