A pithy yet deep introduction to Einstein's general theory of relativity

Of the four fundamental forces of nature, gravity might be the least understood and yet the one with which we are most intimate. On Gravity combines depth with accessibility to take us on a compelling tour of Einstein's general theory of relativity. A. Zee begins with the discovery of gravity waves, then explains how gravity can be understood in comparison to other classical field theories, presents the idea of curved spacetime, and explores black holes and Hawking radiation. Zee travels as far as the theory reaches, leaving us with tantalizing hints of the unknown, from the intransigence of quantum gravity to the mysteries of dark matter. Infused with Zee's signature warmth and fresh style, On Gravity opens a unique pathway to comprehending relativity, gravity, spacetime, and the workings of the universe.

A great versatile watch
Color: black/black
This is a great watch. I wear a Rolex GMT daily, but wear this at the gym, at fencing practice, holding power equipment , hammering and other activities. Runs fine, keeps good time, easy to read. Like the 24 hour dial. Sometimes I just wear it because I like it.

Good watch, not incredibly durable for everyday use.
Color: silver/brown
A nice watch, the date feature and the glow in the dark were quite helpful. It lasted be about 6 months of regular use. Unfortunately it stopped keeping time (intermittent freezing) and the second hand fell off, I'm kinda disappointed with its durability. Unsure of the initial cause, I guess I hit something with my wrist.
