More about the book
Focusing on the geometrical development of 2-spinors in general relativity, this book provides a more intuitive understanding of their behavior, avoiding the abstract nature of representation theory. It explores the algebra and calculus of spinors in curved space-time, illustrating their connections to well-known tensor fields in the field. The analysis of the Lanczos spinor wraps up the content, with practical applications of previously introduced techniques. Each chapter includes exercises to reinforce learning and enhance comprehension.
