This document discusses Einstein's theory of special relativity. It introduces Einstein's two postulates: 1) the laws of physics are the same in any inertial reference frame, and 2) the speed of light in vacuum is constant. It describes how the Galilean transformations do not account for electromagnetism, while the Lorentz transformations proposed by Hendrik Lorentz are consistent with Maxwell's equations. The Lorentz transformations relate space and time coordinates between inertial frames in motion. Relativistic addition of velocities is also covered.
