«Einstein for Beginners» is the popular science comic by Joseph Schwartz and Michael McGuinness, published by Random House Inc (paperback, 173 pages, English).
Combines the life of Albert Einstein with the earlier discoveries that made his theory of relativity possible: Galileo, Faraday and Newton appear in panels, alongside the communications advances of the era. It explains why moving clocks run slower, why nothing exceeds the speed of light, and how E=mc² is reached.
Published in 1979, it is the fourth volume of the «Writers & Readers Documentary Comic Book» series and includes a bibliography on pages 170-173.
For readers wanting a first approach to relativity through comics, without needing prior knowledge of physics.
