{"product_id":"physical-foundations-of-cosmology-viatcheslav-mukhanov-9780521563987","title":"Physical Foundations of Cosmology","description":"Inflationary cosmology has been developed over the last twenty years to remedy serious shortcomings in the standard hot big bang model of the universe. Taking an original approach, this textbook explains the basis of modern cosmology and shows where the theoretical results come from. The book is divided into two parts; the first deals with the homogeneous and isotropic model of the Universe, the second part discusses how inhomogeneities can explain its structure. Established material such as the inflation and quantum cosmological perturbation are presented in great detail.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Viatcheslav Mukhanov\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521563984\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521563987\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 11\/10\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 442\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.03lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.80h x 6.80w x 1.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2006 pg. 2015","brand":"Viatcheslav Mukhanov","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43920033120511,"sku":"9780521563987","price":137.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_a496ebf9-2050-4eee-b1ed-33d2691448fb.jpg?v=1680813224","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/physical-foundations-of-cosmology-viatcheslav-mukhanov-9780521563987","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
