This textbook is an alternative to the standard Landau & Lifshitz treatment (in The Classical Theory of Fields), offering a more detailed discussion of specific general relativistic effects. It is intended for a broad readership of advanced theoretical students and researchers, rather than prospective specialists in General Relativity. Topics include gravitational lensing, the signal retardation in the gravitational field of the sun, the Reissner-Nordstrem solution, some spin effects, the resonance transformation of an electromagnetic wave into a gravitational one, and the entropy and temperature of black holes.
