  • Bryce DeWitt's Lectures on Gravitation

    Edited by Steven M. Christensen

    by Bryce DeWitt ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Bryce DeWitt, a student of Nobel Laureate Julian Schwinger, was himself one of the towering figures in 20th century physics, particularly renowned for his seminal contributions to quantum field theory, numerical relativity and quantum gravity. In late 1971 DeWitt gave a course on gravitation at Stanford University, leaving almost 400 pages of detailed handwritten notes. Written with clarity and ... Read more
