Peebles, P. J. E.
PRINCIPLES OF PHYSICAL COSMOLOGY
Publisher: Princeton University Press, Princeton, NJ, 1993.
As New in As New dust jacket. First Edition. Third Printing. Hard Cover. ISBN: 0691074283 FIRST EDITION, THIRD PRINTING. Hardcover with unclipped dust jacket. Thick 8vo. xviii, 718 pp. Bound in publisher's full blue cloth, gilt (silver) lettering on spine. Illustrated with B&W figures throughout. A volume in the Princeton Series on Physics. This is a new, unopened copy. Both the volume and the dust jacket are in perfect, pristine condition. AS NEW/AS NEW. During the last twenty years, dramatic improvements in methods of observing astrophysical phenomena from the ground and in space have added to our knowledge of what the universe is like now and what it was like in the past, going back to the hot big bang. In this overview of today's physical cosmology, P. J. E. Peebles shows how observation has combined with theoretical elements to establish the subject as a mature science, while he also discusses the most notable recent attempts to understand the origin and structure of the universe. A successor to Peebles's classic volume Physical Cosmology (Princeton, 1971) the book is a comprehensive overview addressed not only to students but also to scientists active in fields outside cosmology. The first part of the work presents the elements of physical cosmology, including the history of the discovery of the expanding universe. The second part, on the cosmological tests that measure the geometry of spacetime, discusses general relativity theory as the basis for the tests, and then surveys the broad variety of ways the tests can be applied with the new generations of telescopes and detectors. The third part deals with the origin of galaxies and the large-scale structure of the universe, and reviews ideas about how the evolution of the universe might be traced back to very early epochs when structure originated. Each chapter begins with an introduction that can be understood with no special knowledge beyond undergraduate physics, and then progresses to more specialized topics. P. J. E. Peebles is Albert Einstein Professor of Science at Princeton University. He is a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and the Royal Society. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. xviii, 718 pp
