The origin and evolution of the primordial perturbation is the key
to understanding structure formation in the earliest stages of the
Universe. It carries clues to the types of physical phenomena
active in that extreme high-density environment. Through its
evolution, generating first the observed cosmic microwave
background anisotropies and later the distribution of galaxies and
dark matter in the Universe, it probes the properties and dynamics
of the present Universe. This graduate-level textbook gives a
thorough account of theoretical cosmology and perturbations in the
early Universe, describing their observational consequences and
showing how to relate such observations to primordial physical
processes, particularly cosmological inflation. With ambitious
observational programmes complementing ever-increasing
sophistication in theoretical modelling, cosmological studies will
remain at the cutting edge of astrophysical studies for the
foreseeable future.
