摘要：These notes present a brief introduction to Hot Big Bang cosmology and Cosmic Inflation, together
with a selection of some recent attempts to embed inflation into string theory. They provide
a partial description of lectures presented in courses at Dubrovnik in August 2006, at CERN in
January 2007 and at Cargèse in August 2007. They are aimed at graduate students with a working
knowledge of quantum field theory, but who are unfamiliar with the details of cosmology or of
string theory.
