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. The textbook 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.
