Could you recommend me some good textbooks on cosmology, please? I'm looking for something that covers both general relativity topics and, which is more important for me, particles astrophysics stuff. I like the structure of Bergström&Goobar's book but it's a little bit sketchy. Something with more detailed calculations would be nice. Maybe there are any book that mentions also more modern conceptions like brane cosmology?
I know general relativity (at the level of undergraduate course) and quantum field theory (at the advanced level, I think).
Sorry for duplicating but most of the books usually recommended are too hand-waving for me and don't suit my preferences. Dodelson is quite OK but it's good to have more than one reference :) You would probably recommend Weinberg but is his cosmology book more student-friendly than the QFT one (which is very deep but terrible to read)?
