These notes provide a student-friendly introduction to the theory of gravitational waves in full, non-linear general relativity (GR). We aim for a balance between physical intuition and mathematical rigor and cover topics such as the Newman-Penrose formalism, electromagnetic waves, asymptotically Minkowski spacetimes, the peeling theorem, the universal structure of null infinity, the Bondi-Metzner-Sachs group, and the definition of radiative modes in linear as well as in non-linear GR. Many exercises and some explicitly calculated examples complement the abstract theory and are designed to help students build up their intuition and see the mathematical machinery at work.

Probing Gravity -- Fundamental Aspects of Metric Theories and their Implications for Tests of General Relativity
Gravitational wave memory is shown to arise naturally from the Isaacson backreaction formalism in general metric theories of gravity, unifying null and ordinary memory and providing a memory formula valid beyond GR.
