Good Intro to General Relativity; no math!
Prof. Ferreira's book, The Perfect Theory, presents an historical account of the origin, growth, confirmation by Eddington, eclipse by quantum mechanics, and modern resurgence of Einstein's General Theory of Relativity. Prof. Ferreira captures the interplay of the development of theory and the development of science, and provides sufficient biographical information regarding the diverse people who contributes to the development of Relativity Theory to maintain human interest throughout. Taken as a whole, the book illustrates an important Kantian truth about science -- we find in Nature what we look look for in Nature.
