General relativity from A to B Robert Geroch
Publisher: U.Chicago

Einstein's Theory of Special Relativity. We discovered this by looking at the white dwarf Sirius B experimentally in astrophysics (other people have done laboratory experiments). Astronomers have obtained the most compelling evidence yet that massive objects dramatically warp space–time, as predicted by Einstein's general theory of relativity. This theory is named general relativity . Stewart General Relativity - R. Wald General relativity and relativistic astrophysics - Straumann N.

The great scientist made an even more profound impact on physics with his theory of general relativity, replacing Newton with a better model for gravity. General Relativity Theory : ABC Of Relativity 4th. Note that Einstein explicitly used the equation c'=c(1+gh/c^2) in the period 1907-1915, then, in the final version of general relativity, replaced it with c'=c(1+2gh/c^2). Well, that's only half of the relativity picture. Russell Advanced General Relativity - J. Gravity Probe B: Final Results of a Space Experiment to Test General Relativity.
