Zusatztext ... this book attains uniqueness in its specific approach ... The book is readable and covers interesting material, some of it new and not covered so fully in earlier texts. It can be recommended for the serious student who wishes to study these matters in some detail, particulary the material on cosmic censorship. Klappentext This book describes global aspects in gravitation theory and cosmology within the framework of Einstein's theory of gravity. Topics include results on the structure and topology of space-time! exact solutions to Einstein equations and singularities! the status of quantum gravity! and quantum effects near space-time singularities in strong curvature fields. The author also discusses the nature and structure of space-time singularities! the cosmic censorship problem in black hole physics! and the issue of quantum effects in strong gravity fields. Students and mathematicians! astrophysicists! and physicists will find this theoretically rich book a landmark in relativity theory. Zusammenfassung Basic to the entire theory and applications of black hole physics, this book covers the topics needed to understand the key issues in gravitation theory: cosmology and black holes. The topics included are the structure and topology of space-time, exact solutions and singularities, quantum effects in strong gravity fields, and more.
