General Relativity
by Benjamin Crowell
Publisher: lightandmatter.com 2010
Number of pages: 334
Description:
This is an undergraduate textbook on general relativity. The book is meant to be especially well adapted for self-study, and answers are given in the back of the book for almost all the problems. The ratio of conceptual to mathematical problems is higher than in most books.

Lecture Notes on General Relativity
by Matthias Blau - Universitaet Bern
The first half of the book is dedicated to developing the machinery of tensor calculus and Riemannian geometry required to describe physics in a curved space time. We will then turn to various applications of General Relativity.
