Cosmology books

[hellfire]

I am searching for a complete and extensive reference (or a reference set) about cosmology. It should be up to date and, if possible, with not too much formulas without proofs. It seams there are two classical books:

Principles of Physical Cosmology, Peebles.
Cosmological Physics, Peacock.

But the review comments in amazon are not very enthusiastic. Does anyone know these or other books?

Thanks.

I've used both Peacock and Peebles. While Cosmological Physics is a good book on Cosmology, the sections on GR and QFT aren't all that great and you'd be best to look elsewhere. They have a serious 'skimmed over' feel to them. I'd say Peebles is the stronger of the two.

I've heard good things about volume 3 of Padnamabhan's 'Theoretical Astrophysics', but not personally got around to reading it.
