Mathematical Relativity
by José Natário - arXiv
These are lecture notes written for a one-semester course in mathematical relativity aimed at mathematics and physics students. Not meant as an introduction to general relativity, but rather as a complementary, more advanced text.

Space, Time and Gravitation: An Outline of the General Relativity Theory
by Arthur Stanley Eddington - Cambridge University Press
The author gives an account of general relativity theory without introducing anything very technical in the way of mathematics, physics, or philosophy. It is hoped that the book may also appeal to those who have gone into the subject more deeply.
