Synopsis
This book gives readers a quantitative understanding of important aspects of general relativistic cosmology starting with school math and Newtonian ideas in physics. The book is concerned mainly with various models that have been proposed to explain the large scale structure of the universe; The Friedmann models, steady state models and model universes involving pressure, Topics include special relativity, red-shift magnitude relations, radio source counts, Olber's paradox, horizons and cosmological coincidences. See photos. My picture taking ability makes the pages look darker than they are.

Repair on cover. See images. A great book. About the book >.>.> Man's curiosity about the universe in which he lives can be traced back to the beginnings of human records. The wonder and excitement engendered by this study have been the subject of much literature, including poetry (Lucretius, Omar Khayyam, Shelley, and many others). In the last fifty years the sub- ject has become a formal science in the sense that the theor ies of cosmology can now be confronted with an increasing weight of observational evidence. We feel that a subject of such philosophical and scien- tific interest has much to contribute to our culture and to the education of pupils at school and students at University. However, the difficulties of the general theory of relativity, and of establishing the connection between theory and observa- tion, have curtailed the use of the subject as an element in education. This book represents an attempt to open up the path to the frontiers of knowledge in cosmology by using only the mathematics of th. Seller Inventory # Batch-FM292-G-7382
