The third edition of this successful textbook is fully updated and includes important recent developments in cosmology. The book begins with an introduction to cosmology and general relativity and then goes on to cover the mathematical models of standard cosmology. The physical aspects of cosmology, including primordial nucleosynthesis, the astroparticles physics of inflation an the current ideas on structure formation are discussed. Alternative models of cosmology are reviewed, including the model of quasi-steady-state cosmology, which has recently been proposed as an alternative to big-bang cosmology. The final chapters discuss observational cosmology and describe the debate on theory versus observational methods. The book includes 400 problem: and numerous worked examples. This introductory textbook describes modern cosmology at a level suitable for advanced undergraduates and graduates who are familiar with mathematical methods and basic theoretical physics. It is intended for use on courses in theoretical physics, astrophysics and applied mathematics that include modern cosmology.ISBN-- 9780521531412
