Key Features:
• Promotes the "learning by doing" approach, guiding the student in the building of the mathematical apparatus necessary to solve problems in General Relativity.
• Encourages the development of analytical skills to address and solve specific and challenging problems in General Relativity.
• Develops symbolic-numerical skills to address problems (often already solved analytically) so that the reader is prepared to attack even more elaborate calculations in General Relativity.
