Faster than Light: How Your Shadow Can Do It but You Can't
Robert J Nemiroff explores the fascinating distinction between apparent motion and physical motion. Using the provocative example of a shadow that can seem to move faster than light, this book considers what such an effect means—and why people, objects, and information cannot simply do the same.
