The second part is a comprehensive and accurate incursion in the mathematical background of relativity theory. ! The last part, entitled Gravitation, contains six chapters dealing with the Einstein equation ! cosmology and special topics. Interesting exercises with complete answers simplify the understanding of the presented material. The textbook is recommended to advanced graduates and researchers.
