This book is meant for a one year course in Riemannian Geometry. The approach the author has taken deviates in some ways from the standard path. Instead of discussing variational calculus, the author introduces a more elementary approach which simply uses standard calculus together with some techniques from differential equations. This book will appeal to readers with a knowledge of standard manifold theory, including such topics as tensors and Stoke's theorem. Scattered throughout the text is a variety of exercises which will help the readers to deepen their understanding of the subject.
