Spacetime and Geometry: An Introduction to General Relativity
provides a lucid and thoroughly modern introduction to general relativity
for advanced undergraduates and graduate students. It introduces modern
techniques and an accessible and lively writing style to what can often be
a formal and intimidating subject. Readers are led from physics of flat
spacetime (special relativity), through the intricacies of differential
geometry and Einstein's equations, and on to exciting applications such as
black holes, gravitational radiation, and cosmology. Subtle points are
illuminated throughout the text by careful and entertaining exposition. A
straightforward and lucid approach, balancing mathematical rigor and
physical insight, are hallmarks of this important text.
