About this book :-
General Relativity written by
M. P. Hobson, G. P. Efstathiou, A. N. Lasenby .
General relativity is one of the cornerstones of classical physics, providing a synthesis of special relativity and gravitation, and is central to our understanding of many areas of astrophysics and cosmology. This book is intended to give an introduction to this important subject, suitable for a one-term course for advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate students in physics or in related disciplines such as astrophysics and applied mathematics. Some of the later chapters should also provide a useful reference for professionals in the fields of astrophysics and cosmology.
(M. P. Hobson)
