| Résumé : | This textbook provides a pedagogical introduction to gravity, bridging the gap between Newtonian gravity and Einstein's General Theory of Relativity. The author develops intermediate theories that combine Newtonian gravitation with special relativity, helping students build physical intuition before tackling the full mathematical framework of general relativity. Topics include tensors, spacetime curvature, Einstein's field equations, vacuum solutions, geodesics, gravitational waves, gravitational radiation, and modern field-theoretic approaches to gravity. The book is designed for advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students and includes numerous exercises to strengthen conceptual understanding. |
