Gravitational Waves

.."a useful reference for researchers in the field, and a good introduction for new postgraduates" Classical & Quantum Gravity 18 (2001) "This book provides a comprehensive review of gravitational waves (GW). It includes a wide range of contributions by leading scientists in the field." Zentralblatt, vol. 988" . . . this text gives the impression of a careful, clear and thorough writing which should be of interest for a wide community of physicists, mathematicians, astrophysicists and researchers from other natural sciences . . . In summary, this well-balanced blend of theoretical and experimental, research and survey material bringing together various approaches aspiring to achieve a unified comprehension of the phenomenon of gravitational radiation comprises an authoritative account on the recent progress in gravitational physics and the outstanding mathematical developments it has inspired." Sergey I Tertychniy in Mathematical Reviews "The book constitutes an introduction to the theme of gravitational waves. This subject is of great current interest and the research on it is rapidly developing . . . The book contains excellent material for PhD students that want to enter the field of gravitational waves."
