- Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity
A quick guide to Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity, with reference to the relativity of simultaneity, from the perspective of someoone who doesn't agree with special relativity

- Emotional exercises for the Special theory
This site explores the Special Theory using an approach that doesn't seem to have been used elsewhere. It doesn't involve mathematics and gives a true sense of the situation.
