An Introduction to Cosmology

Tired of reading popular Cosmology books without getting any deeper insight? If you are armed with the machinary of calculus and some elementary knowledge of differential equations, then this book is your key to really getting intimate with Cosmology! All important subjects are discussed (except black holes) in Mr. Bernsteins lucid style, in the span of 200 pages. I was particularly satisfied with the description Inflation theory. This is really one of the best sources for the serious student of cosmology. A far more expensive (but equally good) alternative is Barbara Ryden's book with the same title.
