This book offers a detailed and stimulating account of the Lagrangian, or variational, approach to general relativity and beyond. After an introduction to field theories and the variational approach, individual sections focus on the variational approach in relation to special relativity, general relativity, and alternative theories of gravity.
Part I Introduction.- The character of a scientific theory.- Field Theories and Variational approach.- Fundamental Principles and Field Theories.- Exercises.- Part II Special Relativity.- Motivations.- Mathematical model.- Electromagnetism in SR.- Exercises.- Part III General Relativity.- Motivations.- Lagrangian formulation of GR.- Applications.- Exercises.- Part IV Beyond Relativity.- Motivations.- Theory and Experiments.- Exercises.
