THEORETICAL COSMOLOGY

by A.K. Raychaudhuri

Published by Oxford University Press. 1st. 1979

Very good condition. Today cosmology is one of the most exciting and at the same time confusing subjects. The book aims to convey to the reader some of the excitement while not hiding the confusions that remain. Thus while evidences of the microwave background radiation and the abundances of deuteron and helium as bringing support for the standard big bang cosmology are dealt with in fair details, the unsolved puzzle of some apparently anomalous red shifts and the tendency towards a negative parameter also receive attention... Blue cloth boards, gilt title to spine. x and 298 pages including index.

Spine faded. Text block browned. Contents clean.
