Quantum Gravity in 2+1 Dimensions
Cambridge University Press 1998; US$ 53.00The first comprehensive survey of (2+1)-dimensional quantum gravity - for graduate students and researchers. more...
Gravity-Superconductors Interactions: Theory and Experiment
Bentham Science Publishers 2012; US$ 119.00This e-book attempts to answer one key question relating to gravity research: Is it possible to generate gravity-like fields by condensed-matter systems, in conditions accessible in a laboratory? General Relativity and lowest-order Quantum Gravity predict in this case very small emission rates, so these phenomena can only become relevant if some strong... more...
The Scalar-Tensor Theory of Gravitation
Cambridge University Press 2003; US$ 53.00A pedagogical overview of the theoretical ideas behind the cosmological constant problem, in particular the scalar-tensor theory, which is one of the most popular alternative theories of gravitation. Covering recent developments in the field, including branes and quintessence, it will be an invaluable resource for graduate students and researchers... more...
Physics Meets Philosophy at the Planck Scale
Cambridge University Press 2001; US$ 68.00Collects classic and original contributions from leading experts to discuss one of the greatest challenges in fundamental physics: how quantum mechanics and general relativity can be reconciled in a theory of 'quantum gravity'. A key topic of debate and collaboration between physicists and philosophers. more...
Gravity and Strings
Cambridge University Press 2004; US$ 76.00Gravity and Strings is a self-contained, pedagogical exposition of the theory of quantum gravity provided by string theory, presenting its foundations and its basic results. This book can be used as a reference book for researchers or as a complementary textbook in graduate courses on gravity, supergravity and string theory. more...
Gravitation and Gauge Symmetries
CRC Press 2001; US$ 99.95Aims to shed light upon the connection between the intrinsic structure of gravity and the principle of gauge invariance, which may lead to a consistent unified field theory. more...
Gravitation
CRC Press 2004; US$ 199.95The title is an edited work based on lectures given at a graduate school by internationally known experts drawn from classical relativity, astrophysics, theoretical and experimental particle physics. There is an introduction to set the scene and provide a context for the book. more...
Quantum Gravity
Cambridge University Press 2004; US$ 62.00Focusing on the conceptual and foundational issues raised by quantum gravity, in particular the nature of space and time, this book presents the loop and spinfoam approach. Aimed at graduate students entering the field, as well as established researchers, it will also be of interest to philosophers of science. more...
