Cosmology (2008) is a textbook about cosmology by American physicist Steven Weinberg. The textbook is intended for final-year physics undergraduates or first-year graduate students. [1] The book is a successor to Weinberg's 1972 textbook Gravitation and Cosmology. [2] [3]
Summary
Weinberg has cast his gaze over the vast terrain that cosmology has become since 1972, and his new work ranges from early-universe field and string theory, through inflation and phase transitions, Big Bang nucleosynthesis, and the decoupling of the microwave background radiation, and forward to the nonlinear era of the dissipative formation of galaxies and their large-scale clustering into an interconnected cosmic web.
