Reader's reviews:
*This book is so good it's even worth the outrageous price it costs to obtain a copy of this hard to find classic. There's a lot here that's not in any other book on relativity. For example, the beautiful and original way Synge thinks about scattering. If you're like most physicists and think special relativity is either trivial or uninteresting ignore this book.
If you read this book carefully you will see that Synge is actually something of a heretic, and he actually appears to (indirectly) cast doubt on portions of both Quantum Mechanics and Newtonian Physics. Could Special Relativity offer another way past the well known blockades of the past 50 years in physics? This book offers tantalizing clues that that just might be the case.

*This book is one of the only really rigorous treatments of Special Relativity. J.L. Synge presents the subject by first wiping out all of our previous notions of space and time, and introducing each very carefully as he builds Special Relativity from scratch. It is recommended but not necessary that the reader study his book "Tensor Calculus" by Synge and Schild, to get familiar with his mathematical method of teaching. Students will profit greatly by going through his book, and seeing how he develops his ideas mathematically. This is NOT an axiomatic mathematical treatment, so it is suitable for engineers, applied mathematicians and of course physicists. The price - well that's another story.
