The book contains a complete account of Special Relativity that begins with the historical analysis of the reasons that led to a change in our manner of regarding the space and time. The first chapters are aimed to afford a deep understanding of the relativistic spacetime and its consequences for Dynamics. The chapter about covariant formulation includes among its topics the concepts of volume and hypersurfaces in manifolds, energy-momentum tensor of a fluid, and prepares the language for General Relativity. The last two chapters are devoted to an introduction of General Relativity and Cosmology in a modern approach connected with the latest discoveries in these areas. 0aPHYSICS. 0aASTRONOMY. 0aASTROPHYSICS. 0aRELATIVITY (PHYSICS). 0aPHYSICSxHISTORY.14aPHYSICS.24aRELATIVITY AND COSMOLOGY.24aASTRONOMY, ASTROPHYSICS AND COSMOLOGY.24aASTROPHYSICS.24aHISTORY OF PHYSICS.2 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer eBooks08iPrinted edition:z978038769946240uhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-0-387-69947-9zVer el texto completo en las instalaciones del CICY
