General Relativity (May ~ July)

In Part II, the preliminary investigations of Part I culminate in the derivation of General Relativity, followed by the standard material on the weak field expansion, cosmology, and spherically symmetric solutions. The action principle is given a full description as well, while the last chapter is devoted to causal structures and Penrose diagrams.
