A First Course in General Relativity

Using modern geometrical methods, explained in clear English with basic undergrad level math, this is a great first book on general relativity.

Duals vs. vectors – one forms,  base one-forms. Gradients of one-forms Tensors, covariant and contravariant vectors – all explained possibly better than anywhere else.

Intro to General Relativity and Cosmoslogy – Bohmer

General Relativity – Susskind

Special Relativity and Classical Physics – The Theoretical Minimum – Leonard Susskind

Theoretical Astrophysics – T Padmanabhan
