The scalar-tensor theory of gravitation moved into the limelight in recent years due to developments in string theory M-theory and brane world constructions. This book introduces the subject at a level suitable for both graduate students and researchers. It explores scalar fields placing them in context with a discussion of Brans-Dicke theory covering the cosmological constant problem higher dimensional space-time branes and conformal transformations.
