这本书是很好的黎曼几何教材,适合数学研究生阅读。第3版增加了pseudo-Riemanniangeomety的内容。
影印的挺清晰,你值得拥有!此乃广义相对论两大神器之一,是上乘武功秘籍。
书是很好
很好的教材,感觉比起国内的教材看着舒服。推荐
经典之作。
原版的影印,质量不错
这本书可以作为黎曼几何的书读,比较好,作者都很经典啊
丛书名虽然是UniversiTextinMathematics(UTM,区别于Springer的GTM),但实际上主要读者对象仍然是数学类和物理类的研究生。以前的这类书国内常常会有高校组织相关专家翻译出来以供教学使用,现在,研究生的英语水平提高了,可以直接阅读原著了,所以很多引进的GTM和UTM书籍都没有在组织翻译。当然,阅读是难免会遇到很多不认识的专业名词,一般的英汉辞典都不能够查。这种情况下,就只有买专门的电子辞典或上网查询了。如果能够静下心来把这本书读完,你会发现,不久你的数学水平大有长进,英语水平也有很大提高。当然,看这本书不能够象看小说一样一目十行,而要字斟句酌,每一个证明都要弄明白,每一个概念都要搞清楚。否则,读与不读没有什么差别。
适合有初级基础的人,最好看完微分几何入门书后再看这本书,感觉还可以。
上次买的书质量比较次,这次的还行
慢慢看,术语太多
