This textbook fills a gap in the existing literature on general relativity by
providing the advanced student with practical tools for the computation of many
physically interesting quantities. The context is provided by the mathematical
theory of black holes, one of the most successful and relevant applications of
general relativity. Topics covered include congruences of timelike and null
geodesics, the embedding of spacelike, timelike and null hypersurfaces in
spacetime, and the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations of general
relativity.
