Description
A leading physicist delves into relativity and experimental applications Gravitation and Cosmology: Principles and Applications of the General Theory of Relativity offers a Nobel laureate's perspectives on the wealth of data technological developments have brought to expand upon Einstein's theory. Unique in basing relativity on the Principle of Equivalence of Gravitation and Inertia over Riemannian geometry, this book explores relativity experiments and observational cosmology to provide a sound foundation upon which analyses can be made. Covering special and general relativity, tensor analysis, gravitation, curvature, and more, this book provides an engaging, insightful introduction to the forces that shape the universe.

The master!
"Go to the masters"-they say. If you really want to understand Physics follow the masters not the pupils.Steven Weinberg is the master to follow.The book is rigorous it presents relativity as it is.
I have came to know an interesting fact about the book: Weinberg written this book in order to learn general Relativity that results one of the finest book on the subject!
So if you need a book to learn GR this is THE book.

not for 12th student
hard book, need prerequisites- co-variant and contravariant vectors, tensors, tensor notation..... means good mathematical physics.. Don't buy until you know tensors....
Otherwise it is very good book. very conceptual book.... no doubt but hard as i didn't knew about tensors
