If I were ever to publish a second edition of — unlikely, but check back in another ten years — one thing I would like to do would be to increase the number of problems at the end of each chapter. I like the problems that are there, but they certainly could be greater in number. And there is no solutions manual, to the chagrin of numerous professors over the last decade. What I usually do, when people ask for solutions and/or more problems, is suggest that they dig up a copy of the by Lightman, Press, Price, and Teukolsky. It’s a wonderful resource, with twenty chapters chock-full of problems, all with complete solutions in the back. A great thing to have for self-study.

The book is a bit venerable, dating from 1975, and the typesetting isn’t the most modern; but the basics of GR haven’t changed in that time, and the notation and level are a perfect fit for my book. And now everyone can have it for free! Where by “now” I mean “for the last five years,” although somehow I never heard of this.

Princeton University Press, the publisher, for which students everywhere should be grateful. Edit: apparently as of Sept 2017, PUP, so the book is no longer available for free.

You can still buy it from Amazon. Santa fe 2018 repair manual. If you’re learning (or teaching) general relativity, you owe yourself to check it out.

I always wanted to learn or teach myself how to do theoretical physics from reading popular books about it. Then it always pains me to read a lot of the authors mentioning that just the juicy stuff without mathematical details will be involved in the book.

Then I go into reading them not learning much of anything that I haven’t read before, as it is mostly just a summery of the most famous physics experiments. I thought I could have had a lot more time better well spent learning some of the actual physics behind it. Then looking at this book it doesn’t seem like it would be anything that would be any help in that regard. It looks like it just spits equations out at you and says to solve them. I have been looking for something more along the lines of derivations and explanations as to how scientist came to them (if such a thing happened or exist). If there where other people like me, I think there would be a real market for it. Not really much for the laymen to do anymore, since physics has surpassed and superseded logic itself.
