 A Short Course in General Relativity
Suitable for a one-semester course in general relativity for senior undergraduates or beginning graduate students, this text clarifies the mathematical aspects of Einstein's theory of relativity without sacrificing physical understanding. The text begins with an exposition of those aspects of tensor calculus and differential geometry needed for a proper treatment of the subject. The discussion then turns to the spacetime of general relativity and to geodesic motion |

 Groups Acting on Hyperbolic Space: Harmonic Analysis and Number Theory
This book deals with a broad range of topics from the theory of automorphic functions on three-dimensional hyperbolic space and its arithmetic group theoretic and geometric ramifications. Starting off with several models of hyperbolic space and its group of motions the authors discuss the spectral theory of the Laplacian and Selberg's theory for cofinite groups. This culminates in explicit versions of the Selberg trace formula and the Selberg zeta-function. |

 The Brain: A Beginner's Guide
It has been remarked that if the brain were so simple we could understand it, we would be so simple we couldn't. From a brief history of neuroscience to the most up-to-date research on the brain processes behind a wide array of human activity, this accessible guide assumes no previous scientific knowledge, and offers a tantalizing glimpse into the functioning of man's most complex organ. |
