What is the classic field theory?

Classical field theory deals with the general idea of a quantity that is a function of time and space, which can be used to describe wave-like physical phenomena such as sound and light, or other continuous phenomena such as fluid flow.
The word 'classical' is here used in the sense 'not quantum mechanical'.

Is general relativity a classical field theory?

The remaining fundamental force, gravity, does not have a quantum description yet and is currently best described by the classical field theory of general relativity.
Franklin's book provides an introduction to classical field theory, which will be accessible to advanced undergraduates and beginning graduate students.

In part this is because it contains all of physics: the field can describe vast numbers of particles, interacting in a myriad of different ways.
