The Gravitational Action Principle -- 27. The Action for a Continuous Distribution of Matter -- 28. The Action for the Electromagnetic Field -- 29. The Action for Charged Matter -- 30. The Comprehensive Action Principle -- 31. The Pseudo-Energy Tensor of the Gravitational Field -- 32. Explicit Expression for the Pseudo-Tensor -- 33. Gravitational Waves -- 34. The Polarization of Gravitational Waves -- 35. The Cosmological Term
Resumen: Einstein's general theory of relativity requires a curved space for the description of the physical world. If one wishes to go beyond superficial discussions of the physical relations involved, one needs to set up precise equations for handling curved space. The well-established mathematical technique that accomplishes this is clearly described in this classic book by Nobel Laureate P.A.M. Dirac. Based on a series of lectures given by Dirac at Florida State University, and intended for the advanced undergraduate, General Theory of Relativity comprises thirty-five compact chapters that take the reader point-by-point through the necessary steps for understanding general relativity.
