General Relativity - DAMTP
Preprint typeset in JHEP style - HYPER VERSIONM ichaelmas Term, 2019 General RelativityUniversity of Cambridge Part III Mathematical TriposDavid TongDepartment of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics,Centre for Mathematical Sciences,Wilberforce Road,Cambridge, CB3 OBA, 1 Recommended Books and ResourcesThere are many decent text books on General Relativity . Here are a handful that I like: Sean Carroll, Spacetime and Geometry A straightforward and clear introduction to the subject. Bob Wald, General Relativity The go-to Relativity book for relativists. Steven Weinberg, Gravitation and Cosmology The go-to Relativity book for particle physicists. Misner, Thorne and Wheeler, Gravitation Extraordinary and ridiculous in equal measure, this book covers an insane amount ofmaterial but with genuinely excellent explanations. Now, is that track 1 or track 2? Tony Zee, Einstein Gravity in a Nutshell Professor Zee likes a bit of a chat.
