Re: My Quests on Learning Lorentz Transformation

Thanks for your advise and direction very helpful.

I already started to read chapter 10 and I found it is very useful for
some thought experiments. I study it from the beginning to be
acknowledged on more global concepts, and it very enlightening to find
that Special Relativity can be derived from a diverse of postualtes,
i.e. some "valid" assumptions.

But again, I get stuck at page X-6, on head start example. How do we
came at L(c+v)/2c and L(c-v)/2c respectively ?

The text book says "...you can quickly show that..." I am not only
slow, but totally get stucked, and still working on that.
