This comprehensive three-volume set delves into the realm of general relativity, employing the mathematical framework of differential geometry to elucidate its principles. Comprising ten chapters, the first five chapters serve as an introduction to differential geometry, a versatile tool with applications beyond the field of relativity. Chapter 6 then delves into the complexities of special relativity, utilizing geometric language to convey its concepts. The subsequent four chapters provide a foundational understanding of general relativity, catering to beginners while also offering valuable insights to advanced undergraduate students and serving as a valuable reference guide for practicing theoretical physicists. Each chapter is accompanied by numerous exercises and carefully worked-out examples, designed to enhance the learning experience and facilitate a deeper comprehension of the subject matter. With a primary focus on graduate-level courses, the content of this series is also highly relevant to upper-level undergraduate students and serves as a valuable resource for those seeking to expand their knowledge in theoretical physics.
