{"product_id":"relativity-special-general-and-cosmological-9780198567325","title":"Relativity: Special, General, and Cosmological","description":"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\u003cbr\u003egravitational wave detectors, presently under construction or in the testing phase, promise to open up an entirely novel field of physics. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIt 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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe 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\u003cbr\u003eany fundamental relativistic problem. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTo request a copy of the Solutions Manual, visit: http: \/\/global.oup.com\/uk\/academic\/physics\/admin\/solutions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Wolfgang Rindler\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 448\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.49lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.28w x 0.97d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198567325\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eScitech Book News\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2006 pg. 45\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProfessor Wolfgang Rindler\u003cbr\u003eDepartment of Physics\u003cbr\u003eThe University of Texas at Dallas\u003cbr\u003eRichardson, TX 75083-0688\u003cbr\u003eUSA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press, USA","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":39932098740339,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":80.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_dec22169-8e66-46dc-ab83-5f06dd1e2144.jpg?v=1647789824","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/relativity-special-general-and-cosmological-9780198567325","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
