Note(s) : Includes bibliographical references
The aim of this book is to give graduate students an overview of quantum gravity but
it also covers related topics from astrophysics. Some well-written contributions can
serve as an introduction into basic conceptual concepts like time in quantum gravity
or the emergence of a classical world from quantum cosmology. This makes the volume
attractive to philosophers of science, too. Other topics are black holes, gravitational
waves and non-commutative extensions of physical theories
