520 _a"Written by one of the world's leading cosmologists, this brand new textbook provides graduate students with coverage of the very latest developments in the field. The most recent experimental results are discussed, together with the corresponding constraints on cosmological parameters. Vittorio shows what is meant by precision cosmology, from both theoretical and observational perspectives. Each section is accompanied by problems. Detailed solutions to some are provided in the text, while a solutions manual is offered to accompany the remainder. Rigorous aspects of derivations are covered in the Appendix, allowing the book to be used by students with a variety of mathematical experience"--
