内容説明・目次

内容説明

This classic text retains the flavour of earlier editions but includes updated discussions of chaos, relativity, quantum theory and cosmology. The text appeals to a wide range of students because of the authors entertaining writing style and use of descriptive examples instead of equations which make the presentation easier to follow.
