Meant as a review for students of astrophysics and particle physics, this book contains a selection of survey articles and seminar reports on “high energy cosmology”. Included are contributions on topics ranging from classical cosmology, large scale structure, and primordial nucleosynthesis to quantum cosmology, covering both the theoretical aspects and the most important observations.
