After reading Toprak Işık’s *Kime Göre, Neye Göre?*, you’ll think the theory of relativity is just a story!

Beril, on the cusp of her teenage years, is preparing for a presentation she’ll give in front of the entire school in a month—as if her troubled state of mind weren’t enough. The topic she’s chosen is quite bold:
Einstein’s theory of relativity!
Yes, you read that right. You know, that famous theory of physics dealing with speed, velocity, and acceleration.

So, why might a 13-year-old girl have chosen such an interesting(!) presentation topic?
a. Because she wants to be a physicist in the future,
b. Because she’s a fan of Einstein,
c. To make a name for herself with this presentation,
d. All of the above.

Beril, known for her down-to-earth personality and not exactly a star student, seems to have her work cut out for her. On top of that, with the internet being such a goldmine, she’ll have to do research and work for days on end. But she’s determined. And she has only one thing on her mind: No one—not even Einstein—can captivate an audience as much as she can with what she has to say about the theory of relativity!

Toprak Işık, known for his talent in blending popular science topics with entertaining and gripping stories, now turns his investigative writing skills to the scientific oddities of time and space. Işık enables a child with no prior connection to science to gradually draw closer to it—and, on top of that, to confront and come to terms with a powerful black hole in her emotional universe. With a masterful stroke, he succeeds in helping Beril learn the theories of special and general relativity in an effortless yet unforgettable way.

*From Whose Perspective, According to What?* explains the theory of relativity in a language so entertaining and simple that it will put the minds of those who say, “I’ll never understand this in my life,” completely at ease. Remember, if Beril understood it, so can you.

Or perhaps you haven’t heard that for quite some time, women in the villages have been talking nonstop about the black hole at the center of our universe, and that last year, the Turkish Minibus Drivers’ Association officially split into two factions because they couldn’t agree on the speed of light and time—and that when members of the two factions encounter each other on the road, they flash their headlights at one another with subtle, suggestive gestures?!
