| Description | xii, 367p. |
| Contents Note | This book is a pedagogical introduction to the physics of black holes, with emphasis on a viewpoint that carries the name "membrane paradigm". The membrane paradigm is a translation of the mathematical and physical formalism for black holes into a form that is specially adapted to astrophysical research. About sixty percent of the material contained in the book is drawn - with extensive pedagogical changes - from research articles published in journals such as the Physical Review and Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society. The remaining forty percent is new material based on the author's previously unpublished resesearch. |
