Book I in this volume offers undergraduates a modern view of Newtonian theory, emphasizing those aspects needed for understanding quantum and relativistic contemporary physics. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn 1905, Albert Einstein proposed a novel representation of space and time, special relativity. Book II presents relativistic dynamics in inertial and accelerated frames, as well as a detailed overview of Maxwell's theory of electromagnetism. This provides undergraduate and graduate students with the background necessary for studying particle and accelerator physics, astrophysics and Einstein's theory of general relativity. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn 1915, Einstein proposed a new theory of gravitation, general relativity. Book III in this volume develops the geometrical framework in which Einstein's equations are formulated, and presents several key applications: black holes, gravitational radiation, and cosmology, which will prepare graduate students to carry out research in relativistic astrophysics, gravitational wave astronomy, and cosmology.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNathalie Deruelle, \u003cem\u003eDirector of research, CNRS, Laboratory \"Astroparticle and Cosmology\" (APC) at the University Paris 7.\u003c\/em\u003e, Jean-Philippe Uzan, \u003cem\u003eDirector of Research, CNRS, Institut d'Astrophysique de Paris\u003c\/em\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eNathalie Deruelle is a researcher in Theoretical Physics and Director Research at the CNRS (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique) in France.
