I’m searching for an introduction to relativistic Boltzmann equation. (Sorry, I know this is a question about learning material)

I’ve read an excellent script from David Tong about non-relativistic kinetic theory (from Liouville to Navier-Stokes using Boltzmann equation (see link below).

I was wandering if there is something similar for the relativistic case (as beautifully explained as in Tong’s script)
