Good lectures or books on SR and/or GR

[Bassirou]

Hi guys! I am looking for good lectures or books on special relativity and/or general relativity.
Thanks in advance for any feedback.

I forgot to mention that I am a beginner and I don't know which ressources available through googling are the best for someone in my case. Thanks in advance.

What is your current math and physics knowledge?

 

[Bassirou]

@ micromass thanks for the feedback. Well i already hold a BSc in physics with all the math package. I didnt learn well the SR during my undergraduate studies so I ve forgot almost all about it.

Thank you a lot Daverz. I will surely consider the info you provided me. After my BSc in physics (3 years ago) I did a MSc in modeling and data processing so I have forgotten all my litlle knowledge in Relativity. Now I am just trying to recover that lost. So thank you for your kind information.
