1.Relativity: The Special and the General Theory (Penguin Classics)Relativity: The Special and the General Theory (Penguin Classics)
from Penguin Classics
Price: $8.00

Customer Review:
Though this is not an easy book to read, it does provide insight into the mind of the world's greatest genius.
There is no doubt - this IS Einstein's Universe. For that reason alone this book is a must read.

2.A First Course in General RelativityA First Course in General Relativity
from Cambridge University Press
Price: $42.48

Customer Review:
This book is a good introduction to relativity which does not pull punches mathematically speaking but still manages to be merciful to the beginner. I read this book with only a basic background in freshman college physics and calculus. It took me 2 6-month sessions over 2 years to go through it all... more info

3.Relativity DemystifiedRelativity Demystified
from McGraw-Hill Professional
Price: $13.57

Customer Review:
This book is mathematically daunting. It covers the essentials and formulas of Einstein's theories through hundreds of worked (mathematical) examples. Unlike other books of the Demystified Series, I reckon this one not entertaining at all. It is absolutely not for beginners!

from bnpublishing.com
Price: $6.99

Customer Review:
First let me say that if you are considering buying this book, buy it!
It is amazing that Einstein could have explained these concepts in the "dumbed down" way he did so shortly after publishing his work on relativity. However, this book isn't one to be read in a weekend. At least, not for me.... more info

6.Very Special Relativity: An Illustrated GuideVery Special Relativity: An Illustrated Guide
from Harvard University Press
Price: $14.25

Customer Review:
Years ago I took a course in symbolic logic. Our professor gave us some proofs created by Bertrand Russell. I loved working out the proofs on my own, and then checking my work against Russell. His clarity of thought was startling after my floundering.
At the end of the course, my professor gave... more info

7.The Meaning of Relativity, Fifth Edition: Including the Relativistic Theory of the Non-Symmetric Field (Princeton Science Library)The Meaning of Relativity, Fifth Edition: Including the Relativistic Theory of the Non-Symmetric Field (Princeton Science Library)
from Princeton University Press
Price: $12.21

Customer Review:
Laymen, such as myself, are familiar with the equation e=mc2; yet how many of us non-scientists actually know what this means? Einstein explains this in a series of four lectures. While the explaination is clear, the mathematics behind it (and the implications of relativity theory) are far from easy... more info

from University Of Chicago Press
Price: $40.50

Customer Review:
Wald's book was the standard text for two graduate courses in GR that I took during my PhD (one was an introductory grad course on GR and the other was an advance special topics course on black holes). The first six chapters lay the groundwork for classical GR, starting with a quick recap of the... more info

from www.bnpublishing.com
Price: $9.45

Customer Review:
I'm not happy with this book at all. I'm not a scientist outside of the field of information technology and I want something to explain Einstein's theories that I could read. I read such a book when I was young. It's out of print, but you can purchase it on Amazon used. It's entitled "Relativity:... more info
