Schwarzschild and Kerr Solutions of Einstein's Field Equation: an introduction
by Christian Heinicke, Friedrich W. Hehl
Publisher: arXiv 2015
Number of pages: 96
Description:
Starting from Newton's gravitational theory, we give a general introduction into the spherically symmetric solution of Einstein's vacuum field equation, the Schwarzschild(-Droste) solution, and into one specific stationary axially symmetric solution, the Kerr solution.

Neutrosophic Methods in General Relativity
by D. Rabounski, F. Smarandache, L. Borissova - Hexis
Neutrosophy is a theory developed by Florentin Smarandache in 1995, which studies the nature and properties of neutralities. This book applies neutrosophic method to the General Theory of Relativity, aiming to discover new effects hidden before.

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.
