Release Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This book provides an accessible introduction to astronomy and general
relativity, aiming to explain the Universe, not just to describe it. Written by
an expert in relativity who is known for his clearly-written advanced textbooks,
the treatment uses only high-school level mathematics, supplemented by optional
computer programs, to explain the laws of physics governing gravity from Galileo
and Newton to Einstein.
