Light behaves uniquely under relativistic conditions, and classical electromagnetism is inherently relativistic.

The you want to focus on first (e.g., mastering four-vectors or calculating black hole geodesics).
General relativity replaces the idea of a gravitational "force" with the concept of curved spacetime. The math requires differential geometry, tensors, and field equations. Working through step-by-step problems is the only way to learn how to manipulate these complex mathematical objects without getting lost in the calculations. What a "300 Problems" Collection Covers To help you find the right level of
The problems within this set are often similar in complexity to graduate-level qualifying exams. Finding the Resource (PDF)
