Now, physicist Leonard Susskind, assisted by André Cabannes, returns to tackle Einstein’s general theory of relativity. Starting from the equivalence principle and covering the necessary mathematics of Riemannian spaces and tensor calculus, Susskind and Cabannes explain the link between gravity and geometry. They delve into black holes, establish Einstein field equations, and solve them to describe gravity waves. The authors provide vivid explanations that, to borrow a phrase from Einstein himself, are as simple as possible (but no simpler). An approachable yet rigorous introduction to one of the most important topics in physics, General Relativity is a must-read for anyone who wants a deeper knowledge of the universe’s real structure. Review: Best of best in General Relativity - This is incredibly well written and explained book for GR. You may still need some background in tensor theory, but it is quite amazing explanation to Einstein field equation. This is the best GR book for me. I strongly recommend this book to all who want to build solid knowledge in physics. Review: Excellent Conceptual Book. Strongly builds intuition. - What a great book. Very nicely written. Explains mathematics concepts in a physically intuitive way. I especially like how the Riemann tensor is presented as a “diagnostic quantity” or diagnostic tool to use - very hands on, working-man conception, structural and knowable. Goes over subject matter that many GR books take for granted. It’s definitely more than just an excellent introductory book. It provides a fresh view of a fundamental topic that seeks to inspire new thoughts on GR as well as its relation to quantum theory. Also excellent idea to focus on black holes and black hole physics - one of the roads into quantum gravity. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #176,692 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #2 in Differential Geometry (Books) #6 in Physics of Gravity (Books) #17 in Relativity Physics (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 509 Reviews | ## Images ![General Relativity: The Theoretical Minimum - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71dtEoGClaL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best of best in General Relativity *by J***. on December 8, 2024* This is incredibly well written and explained book for GR.
