Description
Foundations of General Relativity by Samuel C. Fletcher offers a thorough exploration of one of physics’ most revolutionary theories. This Cambridge University Press publication carefully builds from fundamental principles to advanced concepts, making general relativity accessible to students and scholars alike.
The book covers essential topics including differential geometry, tensor calculus, the Einstein field equations, and their physical interpretations. Fletcher examines spacetime curvature, gravitational waves, black holes, and cosmological applications with mathematical precision and conceptual clarity.
Ideal for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in physics and mathematics, this text balances rigorous mathematical development with intuitive explanations of physical phenomena. The structured approach enables readers to develop deep understanding of how gravity emerges from the geometry of spacetime itself.
