Hi
No doubt this question has been asked by many before. I am new to the study of Relativity. I have spent several months reading this and that and generally getting very confused.
One thing that I just can't get passed is understanding even what the heck tensors are. Every single book or article that I have found that calls itself an introduction starts with a definition which just reads to my limited understanding as complete double dutch. Can anyone help explain in completely non mathematical terms what tensors are?
Gratefully
Peter
