By Price, Richard H., Kip S. Thorne, Douglas A. Macdonald

Subjects: Black holes (astronomy), Astrophysics, Black holes (Astronomy)

Description: A pedagogical introduction to the physics of black holes. The membrane paradigm represents the four-dimensional spacetime of the black hole's "event horizon" as a two-dimensional membrane in three-dimensional space, allowing the reader to understand and compute the behavior of black holes in complex astrophysical environments.
