Astronomy & Space Science Editorial Review

This book provides an up-to-date overview of current research on General Relativity. It is recommended for both beginners and PhD-level students. The book includes simplified derivations of theoretical results and discusses recent tests and experimental applications of General Relativity. However, the Kindle and print versions have problems, with small characters in the print version and microscopic equations in the Kindle version. Overall, the book is praised for its clear writing style and helpful illustrations.
