Availability Information

We source books from suppliers in Australia and overseas. For books we don't currently have in stock, the time it takes to get them from our suppliers can vary widely - from a few days to a few months - so we check each book with each supplier to determine the expected time it will take to be supplied to us.

We then advise you accordingly. If the time taken to get any book is too long for you, you can let us know and we will cancel or adjust your order, and refund as required.

Black holes are one of the most fascinating predictions of

general relativity. They are the natural product of the

complete gravitational collapse of matter and today we

have a body of observational evidence supporting the

existence of black holes in the Universe. However, general

relativity predicts that at the center of black holes there are

spacetime singularities, where predictability is lost and

standard physics breaks down. It is widely believed that

spacetime singularities are a symptom of the limitations of

general relativity and must be solved within a theory of

quantum gravity. Since we do not have yet any mature and

reliable candidate for a quantum gravity theory,

researchers have studied toy-models of singularity-free

black holes and of singularity-free gravitational collapses

in order to explore possible implications of the yet unknown theory of quantum gravity. This book reviews all

main models of regular black holes and non-singular

gravitational collapses proposed in the literature, and

discuss the theoretical and observational implications of

these scenarios.
