For the serious mathematical cosmologist
This is a good up-to-date book. It is way more advanced than Ryden's excellent book "Introduction to Cosmology". So Baumann's "Cosmology" is only for those with a serious mathematical inclination. I'm very happy with it and it is exactly what I needed for my own work.

Excellent advanced undergraduate text on cosmology
Popular lecture notes available in book format and online resources. After Harrison's and Ryden's books on cosmology, Baumann's text is a very good reference in order to achieve the level of the classic ones (i.e. Dodelson, Weinberg, Kolb and Turner, ..).

Bello ma l’edizione Kindle è difettosissima.
Il libro è molto bello, chiaro e scritto bene. Purtroppo nell’edizione Kindle mancano, cioe sono in bianco, una decina di figure (a partire dalla 3.6). Io non ho trovato il modo di farmelo cambiare, Voto 3 ma sarebbe 5 senza qusto inaccettabile difetto. Nessuno in Amazon se ne è accorto? Eugenio Tabet

Un grand livre sur la cosmologie
Ouvrage remarquable de cosmologie. A mettre sur tous les rayons de bibliothèque. Vient d'être récompensé par un prix.

Cosmology is a moving target but this hit the 2022 mark.
Liked the book. Thorough for a short book especially with the Appendices. I haven't looked seriously at cosmology in many years and this is a good refresher and up-to-dater. Also looking at Barbara Ryden's book which Baumann also recommends.
