There are two great new textbooks out that I decided to buy. They are
Modern Classical Physics: Optics, Fluids, Plasmas, Elasticity, Relativity, and Statistical Physics by Kip S. Thorne and Roger D. Blandford, (2017)
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0691159025/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_image_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
and
Relativistic Classical Mechanics and Electrodynamics by Martin Land and Lawrence P. Horwitz (2020)
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1681737086/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_image_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
The prices aren't that bad either. Each seems great for learning relativity.

Did you also buy a dictionary, by any chance?

It's responses like this that make me block your posts.. I thought that this time you might have something constructive to say but I see I was wrong, you're merely sarcastic, which is the lowest form of humor.

Science usually considers it to be constructive to correct an error.
It seems you don't...

My copy of Modern Classical Physics: Optics, Fluids, Plasmas, Elasticity, Relativity, and Statistical Physics just came. Wow, it sure is a thick book. It's over 1500 pages long and about 5 cm thick! Nice book so far. It covers a lot of subjects, too.
