From the reviews of the second edition: "Bergstrom and Goobar's (hereafter B&G) ... are addressing students who already have some knowledge of advanced quantum mechanics and classical field theory ... . The book is meant for use at the graduate level, probably the second year by US standards ... . There are worked problems in the text and 2 - 15 problems at the ends of each of the 15 chapters ... . B&G might well be a good fit to a seminar for students beginning in that area." (Virginia Trimble, Classical and Quantum Gravity, Issue 24, 2007)
