Aimed at advanced undergraduates, this self-contained textbook
covers the key ideas of special and general relativity together with their applications.
The textbook introduces students to basic geometric concepts, such as metrics,
connections and curvature, before examining general relativity in more detail.
It shows the observational evidence supporting the theory, and the description
general relativity provides of black holes and cosmological space-times.This book is in full colour, with
numerous worked examples and exercises with solutions. Key points and equations
are highlighted for easy identification, and each chapter ends with a summary
list of important concepts and results. This textbook provides the essential
background for an up-to-date discussion of modern observational cosmology. Each
chapter builds on the previous one as concepts are developed, making it ideal
for self-study.
