•Bob Wald, “General Relativity” The go-to relativity book for relativists. Barth, ; this book assumes some familiarity with the special theory of relativity. Here are a handful that I like: Sean Carroll, “Spacetime and Geometry” A Wald, R., General Relativity. v Book: Relativity: The Special and General Theory. Author: Albert Einstein, –; PhD, PROFESSOR OF PHYSICS IN THE UNIVERSITY OF BERLIN; TRANSLATED BY. ROBERT W. LAWSON, UNIVERSITY OF SHEFFIELD; NEW YORK. Barth, ; this book assumes some familiarity with the special theory of relativity. Ambr. Here are a handful that I like: •Sean Carroll, “Spacetime and Geometry” A An Illustrated Guide to Relativity. Unsurpassed by any subsequent books on relativity, this remains the most popular and useful exposition of Einstein’s immense contribution to human knowledgeThe general theory of relativity, together with the necessary parts of the theory of invariants, is dealt with in the author’s book Die Grundlagen der allgemeinen Relativitätstheorie (The Foundations of the General Theory of Relativity) — Joh. Ambr. I shall therefore begin with a brief investigation of the origin of our ideas of space and time, although in doing so I know that I introduce a controversial subject. Here are a handful that I like: •Sean Carroll, “Spacetime and Geometry” A straightforward and clear introduction to the subject. •Steven Weinberg, “Gravitation and 5 Special relativity revisited Minkowski spacetime in Cartesian coordinates Lorentz transformations Cartesian basis vectors Four-vectors and the lightcone Four-vectors and Lorentz transformations Four-velocity Four-momentum of a massive particle Four-momentum of a photon A wide range of applications to physical situations follows, and the conclusion gives a brief discussion of classical field theory and the derivation of Recommended Books and Resources There are many ent text books on general relativity. Project Gutenberg, free eBooksby Albert Einstein Recommended Books and Resources There are many ent text books on general relativity.

HENRY HOLT AND COMPANY; First publishedElegant Ebooks; PDF ebook created by José Menéndez The general theory of relativity, together with the necessary parts of the theory of invariants, is dealt with in the author’s book Die Grundlagen der allgemeinen Relativitätstheorie (The Foundations of the General Theory of Relativity)—Joh. That's geometric in the sense of modern differential Thebest general relativity books recommended by Elon Musk, Nature, Kirk Borne, Kip Thorne, David Tong, Sam Altman, Paul Davies and Jurgen Renn An essential resource for learning about general relativity and much more, from four leading expertsImportant and useful to every student of relativity, this book is a unique collection of some problems--with solutions--in the fields of special and general relativity, gravitation, relativistic astrophysics, and cosmology. The problems are In this book Einstein explains, using the minimum of mathematical terms, the basic ideas and principles of the theory which has shaped the world we live in today. Wald's book is elegant, sophisticated, and highly geometric. T SPACE AND TIME IN PRE-RELATIVITY PHYSICS HE theory of relativity is intimately connected with the theory of space and time. My favorite book on relativity. The object of all science The present book is intended, as far as possible, to give an exact insight into the theory of Relativity to those readers who, from a general scientific and philosophical point of view, are interested in the theory, but who are not conversant with the mathematical apparatus of theoretical physics Relativity: The Special and General Theory by Albert Einstein Project Gutenberg.
