Default how technical is Einstein's book on relativity?

A condensed unified presentation intended for one who has already gone
through a standard text and digested the mechanics of tensor theory and the
physical basis of relativity. Einstein's little book then serves as an
excellent tying-together of loose ends and as a broad survey of the subject.
I'd say it was fairly technical and not ideal for those unfamiliar with
tensor mathematics.
