Abstract
The field equations for Barber's two self-creation theories of gravitation are solved for Friedmann-Robertson-Walker space times, using perfect fluid energy-momentum tensors. Barber's first theory is discussed for the radiation dominated case, whereas cosmologies according to Barber's second sefl-creation theory are constructed for vacuum-dominated, radiation-dominated, and dust-filled cases.
