General Relativity A Geometric Approach AND Student Guide to Maxwell's Equations

Description: LOT OF 2 books from Cambridge University Press for undergraduate students in physics or mathematics. Included are: - General Relativity: A Geometric Approach by Malcolm Ludvigsen (Ph.D. Newcastle University, Ph.D. University of Pittsburgh)1999 First Edition, ISBN 0-521-63976-X, 217 pagesPer the author, this introduction to the theory of general relativity emphasizes "...the geometric structure of spacetime, rather than the traditional coordinate-dependent approach. This allows the theory to be pared down and presented in its simplest and most elegant form. Topics covered include flat spacetime (special relativity), Maxwell fields, the energy-momentum tensor, spacetime curvature and gravity, Schwarzschild and Kerr spacetimes, black holes and singularities, and cosmology." Suitable for final-year mathematics or physics students (or exceptionally smart homeschoolers or curious lifelong learners). Exercises are provided at the end of each chapter, with answers to selected exercises in the back of the book. - A Student's Guide to Maxwell's Equations by Daniel Fleisch, Ph.D., Space Physics and Astronomy, Rice University) 15th Printing 2015, ISBN 978-0-521-70147-1, 134 pagesFrom the author: "Maxwell's Equations are four of the most influential equations in science: Gauss's law for electric fields, Gauss's law for magnetic fields, Faraday's law, and the Ampere-Maxwell law. In this guide for students, each equation is the subject of an entire chapter, with detailed, plain-language explanations of the physical meaning of each symbol in the equation, for both the integral and differential forms. The final chapter shows how Maxwell's Equations may be combined to produce the wave equation, the basis for the electromagnetic theory of light." An appendix includes Maxwell's Equations in matter. This book is an excellent resource for undergrad and graduate studies in electromagnetics. Ready to ship immediately from our smoke-free home.
