{"product_id":"gravity-and-strings-tom-s-ortn-9780521768139","title":"Gravity and Strings","description":"Self-contained and comprehensive, this definitive new edition of Gravity and Strings is a unique resource for graduate students and researchers in theoretical physics. From basic differential geometry through to the construction and study of black-hole and black-brane solutions in quantum gravity - via all the intermediate stages - this book provides a complete overview of the intersection of gravity, supergravity, and superstrings. Now fully revised, this second edition covers an extensive array of topics, including new material on non-linear electric-magnetic duality, the electric-tensor formalism, matter-coupled supergravity, supersymmetric solutions, the geometries of scalar manifolds appearing in 4- and 5-dimensional supergravities, and much more. Covering reviews of important solutions and numerous solution-generating techniques, and accompanied by an exhaustive index and bibliography, this is an exceptional reference work.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tom疽 Ort?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521768136\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521768139\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/26\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 1048\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.80h x 7.10w x 2.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2016","brand":"Tom疽 Ort?","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43920064446719,"sku":"9780521768139","price":179.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_118a95cb-a631-4463-935e-e106756487f0.jpg?v=1680813402","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/gravity-and-strings-tom-s-ortn-9780521768139","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
