4.0 out of 5 stars
A book that returns you to the unbounded rigor of calculus,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Absolute Differential Calculus (Calculus of Tensors) (Paperback)
Not quite a page-turner, but this book presents good applications of tensor math. Sometimes difficult to follow, the book omits many "assumed" steps. However, a fine escape into the world of absolute differential calculus.

A must have for all physics majors. Excellent outside source for mechanics, especially upper-division.

This review is from: The Absolute Differential Calculus (Calculus of Tensors) (Paperback)
This book constitutes the history of Absolute Differential Calculus, born from the cooperation from Albert Einstein and Tullio Levi Civita. It also keeps an account on what Gregorio Ricci Curbastro had previously estabilished on Tensors. I think it's a wonderful occasion, to study from the original papers of the authors of a theory, though they are generally somehow obscure, with respect to textbooks. This is definitely a great book.
