World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd (Verlag)
978-981-4678-49-0 (ISBN)
The aim of the book is to give a comprehensive review of one hundred years of development of general relativity and its scientific influences. The book focuses on five aspects of the theory: This unique book provides a broad introduction and review to the fascinating and profound subject of general relativity, its historical development, its important theoretical consequences, gravitational wave detection and applications to astrophysics and cosmology.
