Fundamental ideas and problems of the theory of Relativity

Summary

Einstein's Theory of Special Relativity is based on two principles:

	The laws of physics are constant, even when objects move at constant speeds relative to each other.
	The speed of light is the same for everyone, regardless of how they move relative to the light source.


One fundamental problem with Einstein's theory of relativity is that relative spacetime is not true. Special relativity also challenges our intuitive understanding of simultaneity. According to the theory, two events that are simultaneous in one frame of reference may not be simultaneous in another.

Firstly we see that at any point filled with matter there exists a preferred state of motion, namely that of the substance at the point con- sidered. Our problem starts however with the question whether physically preferred states of motion exist in reference to extensive regions.

    From the New York Times bestselling author of The Accidental Billionaires and Bringing Down the House—the sources for the films The Social Network and 21— comes the larger-than-life true tale of a group of American college buddies who brilliantly built a billion-dollar online poker colossus based out of the hedonistic paradise of Costa Rica. 
One problem: the U.S. Department of Justice was gunning for them. . . . 
Based on extensive insider interviews and participation, acclaimed author Ben Mezrich's Straight Flush tells the captivating rags-to-riches tale of a group of University of Montana frat brothers who turned a weekly poker game in the basement of a local dive bar into AbsolutePoker.com, one of the largest online companies in the world, on par with some of the behemoths of the Internet. At its height, Absolute Poker was an online empire earning more than a million dollars a day, following savvy business strategy and even better luck. Its founders set up their operations in the exotic jungle paradise of Costa Rica, embracing an outrageous lifestyle of girls, parties, and money. 
Meanwhile, the gray area of U.S. and international law in which the company operated was becoming a lot more risky, and soon the U.S. Department of Justice had placed a bull's-eye on Absolute Poker. Should they fold—or double down and ride their hot hand? Impossible to put down, Straight Flush is an exclusive, never-before-seen look behind the headlines of one of the wildest business stories of the past decade.
