General Relativity by Leonard Susskind
The Theoretical Minimum
A concise, approachable introduction to the physics and mathematics of curved spacetime that builds from basic calculus and linear algebra to the central ideas of general relativity: metrics and tensors, geodesics, curvature, and the Einstein field equations; it emphasizes physical intuition and worked examples while deriving key solutions such as the Schwarzschild metric and exploring black holes, cosmology, and gravitational waves, with problem sets to reinforce the mathematical tools and conceptual understanding needed to work with the theory.
