1. A Note on Relativity before Einstein [ Report dead link ]
The first presentation of the Lorentz transformations, including the crucial time dilation, belongs to Larmor (c. 1897).

2. Beneath the Foundations of Spacetime [ Report dead link ]
Special relativity can be derived with moving rulers in such a way that the astonishing connection between space and time can be clearly understood.

3. Breaking in the 4-vectors: the four-dimensional movement in gravitation, 1905–1910 [ Report dead link ]
The four-dimensional language of physics originated with Poincaré, Minkowski, and Sommerfeld in their study of the geometric and symbolic expressions of gravitational action. 57 pages.

4. C-Ship [ Report dead link ]
A short overview of special relativity, filled with relativistic ray traced images. Explains relativistic effects using a theoretical spaceship.

5. E=mc² [ Report dead link ]
An article from the Wikipedia encyclopedia.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E%3Dmc%C2%B2

6. E=mc² before Einstein [ Report dead link ]
According to University of Perugia historian of mathematics Umberto Bartocci, Olinto De Pretto published the famous formula E=mc² two years before Albert Einstein in a paper titled "Ipotesi dell’etere nella vita dell’universo" (Hypothesis of the Essence of the Universe).

7. E=mc² is Not Einstein's Discovery [ Report dead link ]
The mathematician Robert A. Herrmann presents a brief history on the mass-energy equation E=mc² to challenge the myth that Einstein was the first to understand that radiant energy has mass.

8. E=mc² was an Italian's idea [ Report dead link ]
The University of Perugia historian of mathematics Umberto Bartocci claims that a Swiss Italian named Michele Besso alerted Einstein to the writings of Olinto De Pretto who then published Pretto's mass-energy equation without giving credit.

9. Einstein Light [ Report dead link ]
A multimedia tutorial on Special Relativity. The introductory level takes 10 minutes, but has links to over 40 explanatory pages giving greater depth and breadth.
