Renaissance of General Relativity and Cosmology

A special role in the study of general relativity and cosmology has been played by the influential research groups led by Dennis Sciama. In April 1992 many of his ex-students and collaborators assembled to review the developments that have taken place during his career to date. The topics covered include fundamental questions in general relativity and cosmology, black holes, active galactic nuclei, galactic structure, dark matter and large scale structure.
