An essential resource for learning about general relativity and much more, from four leading expertsImportant and useful to every student of relativity, this book is a unique collection of some 475 problems--with solutions--in the fields of special and general relativity, gravitation, relativistic astrophysics, and cosmology.
An annotated facsimile edition of Einstein's handwritten manuscript on the foundations of general relativityThis richly annotated facsimile edition of "e;The Foundation of General Relativity"e; introduces a new generation of readers to Albert Einstein's theory of gravitation.
Essential mathematical insights into one of the most important and challenging open problems in general relativity-the stability of black holesOne of the major outstanding questions about black holes is whether they remain stable when subject to small perturbations.
A concise introduction to the cutting-edge science of particle physicsThe standard model of particle physics describes our current understanding of nature's fundamental particles and their interactions, yet gaps remain.
Deep within galaxies like the Milky Way, astronomers have found a fascinating legacy of Einstein's general theory of relativity: supermassive black holes.
The connections between modern physics and medical technologyMany remarkable medical technologies, diagnostic tools, and treatment methods have emerged as a result of modern physics discoveries in the last century-including X-rays, radiation treatment, laser surgery, high-resolution ultrasound scans, computerized tomography (CT) scans, and magnetic resonance imaging.

This book is a Weekend Pocketbook on Everything You Should Know About How to Destroy a Black Hole, the story of whether the universe's most extreme objects can ever truly be destroyed.
This book is a Weekend Pocketbook on Everything You Should Know About the Timescape Model, a bold alternative to dark energy and the standard story of cosmic acceleration.
This book is a Weekend Pocketbook on Everything You Should Know About Lambda Cold Dark Matter (Lambda-CDM), the standard model cosmologists use to explain the history, structure, and expansion of the universe.
Die Moglichkeiten von Wissenschaft und ErkenntnisEinsteins Klassiker von 1936 bietet nicht nur eine pragnante Auseinandersetzung mit seinem eigenen Werk wie der Relativitatstheorie und seiner Sichtweise der Quantentheorie, sondern auch der Geschichte der Physik insgesamt.
Para Newton, siguiendo los dictados de la mecanica clasica, el Universo era una gigantesca maquina de relojeria en el espacio tridimensional de Euclides, donde el hombre todo lo podia calcular (por ejemplo, la trayectoria mas adecuada para el vuelo a la Luna en 1969), todo lo podia medir (por ejemplo, la distancia que tendria que recorrer el modulo espacial con los tres astronautas a bordo durante el citado vuelo a la Luna) y todo lo podia predecir con anos de antelacion (por ejemplo, que el siguiente eclipse de Sol, visible en gran parte de America del Sur, seria el 14 de diciembre de 2020).
