Up to date cosmology textbook, >Linder, <Weinberg?

[bcrowell]

Is there any cosmology book out there that is up to date, more substantial than Linder, but less so than Weinberg? I own Linder and have read it, and it's fine, but it only goes so far. I have a pretty firm grasp of GR, but if I bought Weinberg I think the chances I'd wade through it are slim. I'm not embarking on a career as a theorist in this area, and I have no interest in learning technical tricks.

I'll offer three possibilities without any comments:

1) Cosmology by Coles and Lucchin
https://www.amazon.com/dp/0471489093/?tag=pfamazon01-20

2) Physical Foundations of Cosmology by Mukhanov
https://www.amazon.com/dp/0521563984/?tag=pfamazon01-20

3) Modern Cosmology by Dodelson
