This is one of the few book discussing the Gibbons-York-Hawking term. Also, shows the details to get the Hamilton equations from Hilbert's action.

I started reading this book only yesterday. I've worked through all but the last chapter, and I'm already ready to conclude that this is an amazing book!

As the book title suggests, this is not an introduction to general relativity. However, with a basic understanding of general relativity and differential geometry, this book can be a very rewarding read.
