Einstein's theory of general relativity is a cornerstone of modern physics. It embraces a wealth of frontier scientific topics including curved spacetime, black holes, gravitational waves, and cosmology. General relativity is increasingly central to contemporary physics and astronomy and therefore to an undergraduate physics education. The aim of this ground-breaking new text is to make this fundamental theory accessible to undergraduate students. Using a physics first approach, a minimum of new mathematics, and a wealth of applications, renowned relativist James Hartle provides a fluent and accessible introduction for physicists and others interested in this central achievement of modern science.
