    Book Gr
AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around the anticipation for the release of a General Relativity (GR) book following the successful launch of a Special Relativity (SR) book two years ago. Participants express curiosity about the release timeline and the reasons for any delays. There is acknowledgment of the existing quality literature on GR, yet a desire for new contributions, particularly from authors like Susskind. The conversation also highlights the appeal of the Minimum series for lay readers and suggests a preference for lectures without student interruptions, contrasting the style of popular science communicators like Brian Cox.

It's been 2 years since the SR book was released. Any news on when the GR book is going to be released?

Why don't you ask him directly?
 
The minimum series has been good from a non scientific/ lay person POV.
I liked the lectures but I would like to see Dr Physics A do similar.
No interruptions from student questions in those posts.
Absolutely nothing Brian Cox about him.

This thread only works as a summary from the original source: List of STEM Masterworks in Physics, Mechanics, Electrodynamics... The original thread got very long and somewhat hard to read so I have compiled the recommendations from that thread in an online (Google Drive) spreadsheet. SUMMARY Permits are granted so you can make comments on the spreadsheet but I'll initially be the only one capable of edition. This is to avoid the possibility of someone deleting everything either by mistake...
