Abstract

This book lays out the logical structure and relationships of contemporary cosmology. Both the classical principles of cosmology and the latest problems in this field are considered. The general theory of relativity is presented in intelligible form together with the theories of elementary particles and physical statistics. Topics include: the geometry of space, the theory of the expanding hot isotropic universe, the problem of the initial singularity, physical processes in the early stages of cosmological expansion, gravitational instability and the formation of galaxies, propagation of light and neutrinos in the expanding universe, the cosmological redshift, gravitational theories, anisotropic cosmological models, and steady-state cosmology.
