Rezensionen
"This book is one of a kind in that it not only covers the subject matter of traditional cosmology but also provides an overview of the latest results in particle cosmology at a level accessible to undergraduate students."
-Danny Marfatia, Professor, Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Hawai'i at Manoa, USA

"This book by Di Bari is amazingly clear, self-contained, and contemporary. Its subdivision into short chapters corresponds well with the sequence of daily lectures. The inclusion of smart exercises and the basics of General Relativity makes this book suitable for undergraduate students. Dr. Di Bari has merged a high pedagogical quality and the latest research into the current state-of-the-art. Cosmology and the Early Universe is an invaluable tool for teachers and students."
-Fiorenza Donato, Professor, Theoretical Astroparticle Physicist, Torino Universuty, Italy

"A clear and up-to-date exposition of modern cosmology and the early Universe. This book will be immensely useful to particle physicists, astrophysicists and anyone interested in the history of the Universe."
-Robert Foot, Research Scientist, School of Physics, University of Sydney, Australia

"This book will be of great value not only to undergraduate students but also to anyone interested in learning or reviewing modern cosmology. The first half of the book provides an accessible and self-contained exposition of the so-called Lambda-CDM model of the expanding universe as well as the latest cosmological observations. The second half is an up-to-date introduction to particle cosmology, including the cosmological puzzles which cannot be explained by the standard model of particle physics. Highly recommended."
-Koichi Hamaguchi, Associate Professor, Department of Physics, University of Tokyo

"'Cosmology and the Early Universe' is an excellent introduction to classical cosmology. It presents a condensed overview of all the necessary theoretical issues and, in particular, to Special and General Relativity. This is a good fit for beginners to the subject, even beginners in university physics. The book is clear and simply written. It covers all essential facts not only on the theory but also on astronomical observations. Cosmology is becoming (or has already become) the leading field in fundamental physics with an avalanche of unexpected discoveries certainly indicating new physics beyond our known frameworks. So I would recommend this book to any university student, not necessarily just those educated in the department of physics. It will also be very helpful for students who plan to continue working professionally in this exciting area."
-Alexander Dolgov, Department of Physics, Novosibirsk State University, Russia

"This book presents the basics of modern particle cosmology with a very clear and intuitive language and from a broad perspective, which makes it nicely suitable for undergraduate students. It covers all current major topics in the subject and discusses the latest observational results. The additional set of problems after each chapter is the perfect complement for students and teachers."
-Sergio Palomares-Ruiz, Researcher, Instituto de Física Corpuscular (IFIC), CSIC-Universitat de València, Spain

"'Cosmology and the Early Universe', by P. Di Bari, provides a road map for the reader on how to start from foundational principles, guided by important observational input, to arrive at our current picture of the Universe. The book offers a clear presentation, emphasizing physical insight over technical details which can be found in references cited throughout the text. The material, supplemented with exercises, furnishes a quantitative understanding of key features of contemporary cosmology and its open questions. The level of the book is suitable for an advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate course, yet it could also be a valuable resource for researchers whose work is informed by cosmological data."
-Hooman Davoudiasl, Physicist, APS Fellow
