This introduction to The General Theory of Relativity and
its mathematics is written for all those, young and old,
who lack or have forgotten the necessary mathematical
knowledge to cope with already published introductions.
Some of these introductions seem, at the start to require
only moderately much mathematics. Very soon, however,
there are frightful ‘jumps’ in the exposition, or suddenly
new concepts or notations appear as if nearly self
evident. The present text starts at a lower level than any
other, and leads the reader slowly and faithfully all the
way to the heart of relativity: Einstein’s field equations.
Who are those who seriously desire to get acquainted
with General Relativity, but have practically no mathematical
knowledge? There are tens of thousands of them,
thanks to the great general interest in relativity, quantum
physics and cosmology of every profession, including
those with education only in the humanities.
