Recensione

'All in all this is an impressive range of topics to cover in an introductory survey which starts more or less from scratch ... The mathematical treatment is rigorous but perfectly accessible to physics and applied mathematics students in their third or fourth years. ... It can be recommended, not only to students of relativity but to astrophysicists, cosmologists and particle physicists. It would also be of great use to physicists from other fields, at all levels, not attending a formal course, but rather interested in getting to grips with the subject by private study.' Contemporary Physics

'... the book is well written and contains a fair selection of topics for a beginning student of general relativity ... Besides being a textbook, because of its standard notation and clear style it can also be used as a reference ... Hans Stephani has produced a fine textbook of general relativity in the classical tradition.' General Relativity and Gravitation
