• Quantum Gravity - A General Introduction.- That Strange Procedure Called Quantisation.- Lectures in Loop-Quantum Gravity.- A Discrete History of the Lorentzian Path Integral.- Introduction to String Theory.- Quantum Theory of Gravitational Collapse.- Primordial Black Holes as a Probe of the Early Universe, Gravitational Collapse, High Energy Physics and Quantum Gravity.- On the Assignment of Entropy to Black Holes.- Physics With Large Extra Dimensions and Non-Newtonian Gravity at Sub-MM Distance.- Quantum States of Neutrons in the Gravitational Field and Limits for Non-Newtonian Interaction in the Range Between 1 mm and 10 mm.- The Einstein Equivalence Principle and the Search for New Physics.

"The book contains a wealth of information that is invaluable for any postgraduate students interested in quantum gravity. The inclusion of an experimental section provides more depth to the discussions which is a welcome addition to the rest of the thorough mathematical treatment. It is a timely wake-up call for the budding student that even the theory of quantum gravity can now be aided by experimental evidence." (Contemporary Physics 2004, 45, page 534)
