Cosmology is an increasingly high profile subject, and many universities are attempting to bring it into a fuller role in the undergraduate syllabus. This introduction to cosmology uses Newtonian theory to offer a detailed discussion of the evidence in favour of the hot big bang in a treatment grounded in physics rather than mathematics. It includes models of the expanding universe, a brief discussion of inflationary cosmology, and self-contained chapters on a number of more advanced topics such as black holes. The text takes a physics based approach as opposed to a mathematical one and includes worked examples and problems along with hints for solving them.

Andrew Liddle is a lecturer in astrophysics at Imperial College, London. Previously, he was at the Astronomy Centre, The University of Sussex, where he lectured to both undergraduate and postgraduate students. This book has evolved from his undergraduate cosmology course. His research interests currently include the origin and evolution of structure in the universe and the relation between astronomical observations and the physics of the very early universe.
