"Expanded edition includes an interview with Dennis Morris"--Back cover.
In 1977, photographer Dennis Morris, known for his iconic work with Bob Marley and the Wailers, turned his lens towards the Sex Pistols and captured an explosion of creativity that changed music and fashion forever. This powerful photo-essay, comprised of 106 large format black and white and colour plates alongside text from the likes of Billy Idol and Shepard Fairey, is a must-have for fans of the band.

This book concentrates on presenting the theory of special relativity as the geometry of space-time. The presentation is straightforward, complete and reader-friendly, with explanatory asides, that give historical context and links with other branches of physics and mathematics. The first four chapters give a complete description of the special theory and the nature of space and time, with the minimum use of mathematics. The mathematics necessary is introduced in the following five chapters, with the final fifteen chapters devoted to a comprehensive and detailed exposition of Einstein’s special relativity.

This book is about the space-time of our universe. This book is about why our space-time is 4-dimensional and why it has the observed distance function. The mathematics in this book are no more than matrices and a little finite group theory. The mathematical steps are clearly laid out and simple to follow. From this elementary mathematics, we get general relativity and classical electromagenetism; we get spinors stripped naked; we get gravito-electromagnetism; and we get the space-time of our universe. We also get an explanation of why there are three generations of matter and why the universe appears non-deterministic to ourselves. We are introduced to spinor spaces and to the higher dimensional spinor rotations within those spaces.
