The Many Faces of Maxwell, Dirac and Einstein Equations A Clifford Bundle Approach

This book is a thoughtful exposition of the algebra and calculus of differential forms, the Clifford and Spin-Clifford bundles formalisms with emphasis in calculation procedures, and vistas to a formulation of some important concepts of differential geometry necessary for a deep understanding of spa...
