Relativistic cosmology has in recent years become one of the most
exciting and active branches of current research. In conference
after conference the view is expressed that cosmology today is
where particle physics was forty years ago, with major discoveries
just waiting to happen. Also gravitational wave detectors,
presently under construction or in the testing phase, promise to
open up an entirely novel field of physics.
It is to take into account such recent developments, as well as to
improve the basic text, that this second edition has been
undertaken. The most affected is the last part on cosmology, but
there are smaller additions, corrections, and additional exercises
throughout.
The books basic purpose is to make relativity come alive
conceptually. Hence the emphasis on the foundations and the logical
subtleties rather than on the mathematics or the detailed
experiments per se. Aided by some 300 exercises, the book promotes
a deep understanding and the confidence to tackle any fundamental
relativistic problem.
