Description
This volume contains up-to-date accounts of many of the latest developments in gravitation, cosmology and astrophysics, including papers on black hole radiation, empirical tests of gravitational theory, quantum gravity, classical and quantum cosmology, singularities, computational methods, and a number of other topics.
