The book leads readers from the basic ideas of relativity--including the Equivalence Principle and curved space-time--to more advanced topics, like Solar System tests and gravitational wave detection. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach chapter contains practice problems designed to engage undergraduate students of mechanics, electrodynamics, and special relativity. A wide range of classical and modern topics are covered in detail, from exploring observational successes and astrophysical implications to explaining many popular principles, like space-time, redshift, black holes, gravitational waves and cosmology. Advanced topic sections introduce the reader to more detailed mathematical approaches and complex ideas, and prepare them for the exploration of more specialized and sophisticated texts. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eIntroducing General Relativity\u003c\/i\u003e also offers: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStructured outlines to the concepts of General Relativity and a wide variety of its applications\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eComprehensive explorations of foundational ideas in General Relativity, including space-time curvature and tensor calculus\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePractical discussions of classical and modern topics in relativity, from space-time to redshift, gravity, black holes, and gravitational waves\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOptional, in-depth sections covering the mathematical approaches to more advanced ideas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003ePerfect for undergraduate physics students who have studied mechanics, dynamics, and Special Relativity, \u003ci\u003eIntroducing General Relativity\u003c\/i\u003e is an essential resource for those seeking an intermediate level discussion of General Relativity placed between the more qualitative books and graduate-level textbooks.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mark Hindmarsh, Andrew Liddle\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1118600711\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781118600719\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wiley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/25\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.50d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mark Hindmarsh","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44058468483327,"sku":"9781118600719","price":64.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f824015b-3660-42e0-bcbc-10713e87c82c.jpg?v=1685052729","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/introducing-general-relativity-mark-hindmarsh-9781118600719","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
