• A new road to the Quantum Gravity

  http://www.livinguniverseweb.com/quantumg.htm
  This Web site explores the possibility that our universe is not an isolated system. From this hypothesis a quantum origin of the gravitation is obtained.

• An Ode to Effective Lagrangian

  http://arxiv.org/abs/hep-ph/9812470
  A brief introduction is given to the methods of effective lagrangians. The emphasis is on a summary of the overall picture, using a simple model of quantum gravity.

• Canonical Quantum Gravity

  http://arxiv.org/abs/gr-qc/9806119
  This is a summary of a talk delivered at the workshop, "Quantum gravity in the Southern Cone II".

• Cause of gravity and an explanation of field dynamics

  http://www.simplegravity.com/
  An intuitive contribution to the gravity debate.

• Classical and Quantum Gravity

  http://www.iop.org/EJ/journal/0264-9381
  A journal for physicists, mathematicians and cosmologists working in the fields of gravitation and the theory of spacetime. Abstracts full text editorials, and freely available featured articles.

• Cosmological applications of loop quantum gravity

  http://arxiv.org/abs/gr-qc/0306008
  After a brief introduction to classical and quantum gravity we discuss applications of loop quantum gravity in the cosmological realm. This includes the basic formalism and recent results of loop quantum cosmology.
