Beschreibung
This book provides a gentle introduction to general relativity, striking a balance between ease of use and precision. As a coursebook, it matches a one-semester undergraduate class perfectly, concentrating on subjects of relevance today. Numerate readers will learn to appreciate the power and beauty of Einstein's creation for themselves.

Über den Autor
Ed Daw is Professor of Particle Astrophysics at the University of Sheffield. He has worked as an experimental physicist since 1998, on searches for dark matter and gravitational waves. His work on gravity led him to volunteer to teach general relativity at Sheffield, which he has continued to do from 2003 until the present. He considers general relativity a hobby, albeit one that is crucial to underpin his understanding of his own research. He also enjoys trying to explain hard things in simple terms, a very good habit for a professor.
