The Theory of
Relativity
co-authored with Suzanna
It is
perhaps not well known that the size of a naval officer's spyglass
bears a direct relationship to "that part of a
gentleman's anatomy which members of the fair sex find to be of most
significance to themselves." And how
does a lady assure that the object of her affection possesses a
suitable telescope? Why, by making him a
gift, by interceding with his superiors, or, if all else fails, by way
of a little coercion. All is revealed in a
series of very, well, revealing letters.
