Summary
Unveiling Covariant Physics: From Basics to Relativity
Covariant Physics: From Classical Mechanics to General Relativity and Beyond endeavors to provide undergraduate students as well as self-learners with training in the fundamentals of the modern theories of spacetime, most notably the general theory of relativity as well as physics in curved spacetime backgrounds in general.
This text does so with the barest of mathematical preparation. In fact, very little beyond multiva…

Critics Review
Introduces and progresses with the subject in ways that are very conducive to good learning and understanding, and fills a real (and currently unmet) need in an undergraduate’s education in preparation for some of modern physics’ most fascinating areas. * S. Leslie Blatt, Clark University, Worcester, Massachusetts *Stresses Einstein’s legacy of using the symmetry principle to discover new physics, and introduces the relevant mathematics in a very gradual way. * Ta-Pei Cheng, University of Missouri - St Louis *
