General relativity and quantum mechanics have become the two
central pillars of theoretical physics. Moreover, general
relativity has important applications in astrophysics and
high-energy particle physics. Covering the fundamentals of the
subject, Principles of Cosmology and Gravitation describes the
universe as revealed by observations and presents a theoretical
framework to enable important cosmological formulae to be derived
and numerical calculations performed. Avoiding elaborate formal
discussions, the book presents a practical approach that focuses on
the general theory of relativity. It examines different
evolutionary models and the gravitational effects of massive
bodies. The book also includes a large number of worked examples
and problems, half with solutions.
