Special Theory of Relativity and Relativistic Electromagnetism is designed to be compact and suitable for students of physics and engineering. The book has been carefully written to cater to the precise requirements of the modern students as it provides both theoretical knowledge and an understanding of the relevant practical applications. Aimed at providing each student and teacher with a thorough understanding of the fundamental principles of the special theory of relativity, the book is presented in an enthusiastic, easy to understand, and comprehensive format. The text and explanations in the book are further supplemented by fully worked-out examples and questions of previous years of NET/GATE. In addition, a chapter on Relativistic Electromagnetism and the basic idea of tensors have been added to make the book the complete repository of the subject for students.

1. Galilean Transformations and Michelson-Morley Experiment
2. Lorentz Transformations and Their Consequences
3. Relativistic Kinematics
4. Four Vector Analysis
5. Relativistic Electromagnetism
6. Elementary Tensor Analysis
Appendices
