A Short Course in General Relativity

From the reviews of the third edition:

"This is the third edition of a book that is already familiar to those who teach an introductory course in general relativity. … Important concepts are introduced slowly and carefully, so that the resulting text is a comprehensible first introduction that is suitable for both physics and mathematics students. … its strength is that it is a short introduction to the subject that still covers all the essential material for a first course and provides a sound basis for further study." (J. B. Griffiths, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2006 h)

"This book is a well-developed introduction to General Relativity. … the present third edition is really re-worked in many places in comparison with the previous ones. … Three appendices are quite helpful … . Solutions to the exercises, References and Index close this very readable book. … Every chapter ends with a list of problems … ." (Hans-Jürgen Schmidt, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1089 (15), 2006)
