Gravitation. From Chrystal Spheres to Wormholes

The book deals with the evolution of the theories of gravitation in the history of science. The modern gravitational theory is tightly connected to the theory of relativity; however, the book describes different theories as well. The book deals with the creation and structure of black holes, detection and generation of gravitational waves, and the evolution of the Universe from the Big Bang to the present stage, and possible future scenario.
