“…Throughout Tensors, examples and worked-out problems are furnished from the theory of relativity and continuum mechanics. Topics covered in this book include, but are not limited to: -tensor algebra -differential manifold -tensor analysis -differential forms -connection forms -curvature tensors -Riemannian and pseudo-Riemannian manifolds The extensive presentation of the mathematical tools, examples and problems make the book a unique text for the pursuit of both the mathematical relativity theory and continuum mechanics.…”

“…Combined into one volume for the first time, the updated and clarified Exercises for the Feynman Lectures on Physics provides comprehensive, hands-on practice in all the most important areas of physics—from Newtonian mechanics through the theory of relativity and quantum mechanics.A perfect complement to The Feynman Lectures on Physics, these exercises have all been assigned in Caltech’s mandatory two-year introductory physics course, either when Richard Feynman was teaching it, or during the nearly two decades that followed when The Feynman Lectures on Physics was used as the textbook. …”
