Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Paperback. There is little doubt that Einstein's theory of relativity captures the imagination. Not only has it radically altered the way we view the universe, but the theory also has a considerable number of surprises in store. This is especially so in the three main topics of current interest that this book reaches, namely: black holes, gravitational waves, and cosmology.The main aim of this textbook is to provide students with a sound mathematicalintroduction coupled to an understanding of the physical insights needed to explore the subject. Indeed, the book follows Einstein in that it introduces the theory very much from a physical point ofview. After introducing the special theory of relativity, the basic field equations of gravitation are derived and discussed carefully as a prelude to first solving them in simple cases and then exploring the three main areas of application.This new edition contains a substantial extension content that considers new and updated developments in the field. Topics include coverage of the advancement of observational cosmology, the detection of gravitational waves fromcolliding black holes and neutron stars, and advancements in modern cosmology.Einstein's theory of relativity is undoubtedly one of the greatest achievements of the human mind. Yet, inthis book, the author makes it possible for students with a wide range of abilities to deal confidently with the subject. Based on both authors' experience teaching the subject this is achieved by breaking down the main arguments into a series of simple logical steps. Full details are provided in the text and the numerous exercises while additional insight is provided through the numerous diagrams. As a result this book makes an excellent course for any reader coming to the subject for thefirst time while providing a thorough understanding for any student wanting to go on to study the subject in depth This textbook provides students with a sound mathematical introduction coupled with an understanding of the physical insights needed to explore the subject Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…
