Have a read of Steven Hawking's "Brief History of Time" and also anything you can get your hands on by Richard P Fenyman. These two are some of the best writers on the topic there have ever been. They aim to teach the average punter about physics.
O, and something interesting I read the other day, regarding special relativity; what Einstein is quoted as saying as his biggest ever mistake (the inclusion of the constant in the theory) might now be explained by the presense of dark matter and dark energy. He might well have been right the first time.
