Lorentz Geometry stands as a pivotal convergence between Mathematics and Physics, serving as the mathematical framework for General Relativity. Delving into the study of this branch of geometry is the initial step towards gaining a comprehensive understanding of profound inquiries about the universe's structure. These include:

- The shape of the universe.
- Spacetime, its nature, and its relationship to gravity and curvature.
- The distinctive treatment of time compared to other spatial dimensions.

Introduction to Lorentz Geometry: Curves and Surfaces aims to equip readers with the essential mathematical foundation required to pursue these captivating inquiries. By presenting the classical theory of curves and surfaces in both Euclidean and Lorentzian ambient spaces simultaneously, this text endeavors to provide the reader with the minimum mathematical background necessary to delve into these profound topics.

Key Features:
- Over 300 meticulously crafted exercises.
- Designed to cater to senior undergraduates and graduates studying Mathematics and Physics.
- Written in an accessible and engaging style, devoid of any compromise in precision or mathematical rigor.
- A comprehensive solution manual is readily available on www.routledge.com/9780367468644, offering further guidance and assistance to readers.

By embracing the study of Lorentz Geometry, individuals embark on a journey that unlocks the secrets of the cosmos, shedding light on the fundamental nature of space, time, and gravity, and paving the way for a deeper comprehension of the universe's intricate tapestry.
