        This is a standard reference in the field, so if you want to
discuss GR, you should have access to both this and MTW.  I can enlarge on

        Also, I learned a long time ago that people don't really value
freebies!

Franz Kafka's novels and novella's are so Kafkaesque that one has to
wonder at the enormity of coincidence required to have produced a writer
named Kafka to write them.
