First published in 1973, Gravitation is a landmark graduate-level textbook that presents Einstein's general theory of relativity and offers a rigorous, full-year course on the physics of gravitation. Upon publication, Science called it "a pedagogic masterpiece," and it has since become a classic, considered essential reading for every serious student and researcher in the field of relativity. This authoritative text has shaped the research of generations of physicists and astronomers, and the book continues to influence the way experts think about the subject.
With an emphasis on geometric interpretation, this masterful and comprehensive book introduces the theory of relativity; describes physical applications, from stars to black holes and gravitational waves; and portrays the field's frontiers. The book also offers a unique, alternating, two-track pathway through the subject. Material focusing on basic physical ideas is designated as Track 1 and formulates an appropriate one-semester graduate-level course. The remaining Track 2 material provides a wealth of advanced topics instructors can draw on for a two-semester course, with Track 1 sections serving as prerequisites.
This must-have reference for students and scholars of relativity includes a new preface by David Kaiser, reflecting on the history of the book's publication and reception, and a new introduction by Charles Misner and Kip Thorne, discussing exciting developments in the field since the book's original publication.
The book teaches students to:
Grasp the laws of physics in flat and curved spacetime
Predict orders of magnitude
Calculate using the principal tools of modern geometry
Understand Einstein's geometric framework for physics
Explore applications, including neutron stars, Schwarzschild and Kerr black holes, gravitational collapse, gravitational waves, cosmology, and so much more

Disillusioned by the Vietnam war and troubled by their own past, Kate and Andy leave New York City for a remote Nova Scotia fishing village in search of a simpler life. Living in Andy's boyhood summer home, they discover the old house is haunted by its original owner, Basil Tannard, who decades earlier was saved by a seal from an accident at sea. Because no one in the village believed Basil and thought he'd gone mad, Basil drowned himself. Yet he remains a ghost in the house, a soothsayer prompting Kate to believe in the unimaginable.
As Kate and Andy settle into the barren, Atlantic community and start a bookstore and begin to raise a family, they discover the problems of their own past are mirrored in the unrest of the locals who are grappling with change as modern technology threatens their traditional fishing livelihood. In their shared sense of place, Kate and Andy's lives become inextricably linked with the fate of Ivan, Will and Lena, and a love triangle, a tragic accident, and alcoholism capsize their future.
Shoal water is a treacherous place to be. Not in deep water, and not on land, it is a place in between, full of unexpected hazards, of submerged sandbars, diffracted waves, and counter currents. The story follows Kate's passage out of dependence into self-possession. It is a compelling story of navigating dangerous waters and gaining the power to redeem loss and find forgiveness and belief in the unimaginable.

Описание: The CIA, beset with draconian budget cuts and increasing problems, decides on an unprecedented strategy. Every week, the agency gets requests from older people, who want to volunteer their services -- often to fill lives made barren by the loss of their partners. In the past, these requests have always been ignored and filed. Now, some will be addressed. A class of fifty OLDOGS volunteers is recruited and trained at the agency's secluded site at Camp Peary, VA. From here, they'll be sent to reinvigorate local networks that have been abandoned due to agent and funding shortages. Their training is followed from the first day to a low-key graduation dinner -- including a harrowing escape and evasion exerise. Eight teams leave on their worldwide first assignments. In the meantime, an ambitious Kazakh bureaucrat has orchestrated the theft of nuclear devices from a storage facility in nearby Omsk. He has sold these initiators to an international organization run by a would-be world builder. He has assigned his best agent to smuggle these devices into Chiapas -- a restive part of Mexico. Here one will be used to destroy part of the tourist conclave of Cancun. The other will travel further north, and devastate Miami. Every step of the terribly destructive package -- from its arrival in Cyprus, through its flight to eastern Colombia, and finally its journey by narco-sub to the southern shores of Mexico, is described. OLDOGS Team Two -- a grieving widower and a retired Air Force colonel -- arrive in Mexico in time to discover and prevent disaster in Cancun. Alerted to the identity of the culprits, they follow them to a cruise ship headed for Miami. In a last-minute confrontation, they defeat the agents of destruction -- only hours before the ship was to dock in south Florida. Action and characters at CIA headquarters at Langley provides a good part of the background for what's going on in Cancun and other places. The total result is a believable look at crisis in the current age. Government caution, intertwining ambitions, and personal bravery all play a part in OLDOGS,
