Hello! I'm another new member; I've always wanted to learn something about GR and QM. Thanks for putting this together. Regarding your question, I was recently...
... Welcome to you also! ... I think the book is good too although I didn't buy it. I ran across it in a book store and almost bought it on "impulse" but...

Originally, I started this post to mention the first few items found through the excellent PhysicsForums. Then I kept finding more and thought it not worth the...
... I've had this book on my shelf for years. Tried again and again to make heads-or-tails of most of it. Felt pretty lost until RTR cam around. I'm now...
In the recent scientific american, there is a feature about alain connes, the "creator" and head proponent of non-communtitive geometry. Connes and NCG is...

John Baez is a moderately famous physicist and runs one of the more informative physics sites (more or less a text only, super blog): A Chat With Penrose John...
In the last few days, I have successfully making a start on Quantum Field Theory through A. Zee's "Quantum Field Theory in a Nutshell". Those of you who have...

I have an M.Sc. in Maths, mostly differential equations, but some relativity & quantum mechanics. All very rusty, because that was thrity years ago, and I've...
Hi! I noticed this question about exercise 15.5 seemed to be outstanding for a while. Let me repost the post from sci.math here (by Knarfian) and give some...
Hi everyone! I guess there hasn't been much activity on the list lately. I've been pretty busy myself, not much time to read RTR or anything else. It seems...
Hi everyone, I just recently ordered a copy of RTR from Amazon.com and saw the discussion group there that mentioned this site, so I thought I'd join you guys....
I am interested in some ongoing discussion regarding RtR. Are there those here who are still engaged with the book or related books? I have just finished...
I haven't had much luck in searching, except for a few isolated suggestions. I see there was a website that was never finished. Has no one compiled a list of...
Hi everyone! I am new on this RTRfans group. I recently acquired a copy -fresh one spanish version- of Sir Roger Penrose's book TRTR. What can I say? I have...
Hello, like everyone else in this group I'm fascinated by physics and a bit frustrated by popularizations that steer clear of the math. Without the math, i...
SB, I think that an interesting idea and I will participate. I have gotten a bunch of math books to try and figure out more of what Penrose is writing. (I am...
Thanks, Thomas, that's terrific! I figure I'll need lots of help and will try as well to help out as much as i can. I hope to be in this for the long haul and...
Hi, It would be really helpful for folks like me. My background is Mechanical Engineering / Industrial Engineering. I started the book but couldn't go forward...
Great, Raj! One of the major reasons i would like to do this is that if we work together, the more we can learn, plus more fun to boot. Safety in numbers! SB ...
