About the Author

The Relativity of Light is a treatise written by Justin Jacobs. It thoroughly examines Einstein’s Special Theory of Relativity and is written in a manner that is meant to make it approachable to the general public.
Jacobs spent over 20 years researching and writing The Relativity of Light. This treatise is revolutionary, controversial, and exposes what Jacobs concludes were many of Einstein’s false concepts.
Jacobs also wrote two other treatises entitled The Relativity of Gravity, which analyzes Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity, The Day the Universe Stopped Expanding, which scrutinizes Einstein’s theory of a Finite Spherical Universe and other related theories, and The Michelson-Morley Paradox Solved, which examines Einstein's contraction of matter theory and explains the real reasons for the Michelson-Morley null results.
