In special relativity theory, the main cocept is the formula
E = Mc^2. Here importance has been given to the frame of reference. We view same things differently from different frames of reference.
Whereas in general theory, the main concept is the warping of space-time fabric by massive body. It is also based on adding time as the fourth dimension.
If you need more information from me, you can mail me at

In Special Theory of relativity the frame of reference is accelerated frame of reference . Also mass is dependent on velocity also. which is related by m=m0 /sqrt (1-v^2/c^2) .So No part icle can move more than the speed of light because then mass becomes infinite and momentum required to move that particle will be infinite. whereas in General theory of relativity the frame of reference is moving with constant speed . so there is no acceleration in this frame of reference .

* Special theory of relativity is the physical theory of measurement in inertial frames of reference proposed in 1905 by Albert Einstein. It generalises Galileo's principle of relativity - that all uniform motion is relative, and that there is no absolute and well-defined state of rest (no privileged reference frames) - from mechanics to all the laws of physics, including both the laws of mechanics and of electrodynamics, whatever they may be. Special relativity incorporates the principle that the speed of light is the same for all inertial observers regardless of the state of motion of the source. * General theory of relativity is the geometric theory of gravitation published by Albert Einstein in 1915. It is the current description of gravitation in modern physics. It unifies special relativity and Newton's law of universal gravitation, and describes gravity as a geometric property of space and time, or spacetime.

One is dealing with constain speed, another is dealing with accelaration(?)
