Description

A gentle introduction to general relativity, this coursebook guides you through the necessary mathematics to arrive at important results. It builds up to a complete derivation of Einstein's Equations and covers key applications in black holes, cosmology, and gravitational waves.

Designed for a one-semester undergraduate class, but accessible to anyone who wants to appreciate the power and beauty of general relativity, this book provides a clear and manageable pace for learning about tensors and differential geometry. You'll gain an understanding of Einstein's creation without feeling overwhelmed by complex mathematics.
