Includes bibliographical references (pages 215-220) and index.
Tensors need context -- Two-index tensors -- The metric tensor -- Derivatives of tensors -- Curvature -- Covariance applications -- Tensors and manifolds -- Getting acquainted with differential forms -- Appendix A: Common coordinate systems -- Appendix B: Theorem of alternatives -- Appendix C: Abstract vector spaces.
"Using a clear, step-by-step approach, the book strives to embed the logic of tensors in contexts that demonstrate why that logic is worth pursuing. It is an ideal companion for courses such as mathematical methods in physics, classical mechanics, electricity and magnetism, and relativity"--
