Pressestimmen

“This wonderful book is not a book to read! It is a book to be used. It is a tool that could help a great number of people to understand general relativity more deeply and to apply it. … This book should figure in the library of anyone working on relativity, remembering that it also contains an important bibliography … also containing important texts linked to that development.” (Patricia Radelet-de Grave, Mathematical Reviews, May, 2023)
