Yeah - it explains relativity as well as Joe Haldeman's The Forever War does
and in the same way too. (which is to say, incredibly effectively).
(actually, that's wrong. It doesn't explain relativity at all, it explains the consequences of relativity. But that's a brilliant start.)
Relativity is about as big a headf**k as it is possible to comprehend, but in essence actually quite simple at the same time. Which is a bit of a dichotomy really.
Bring that s**t into schools for sure. My A-level Further Maths tutor would have definitely shown it to us, regardless of central dictat. He got us to watch Deep Space Nine episodes ffs.
