A9780691164229Paperback / softback. New. In the almost one hundred writings and more than one thousand letters included in this volume Einstein is revealed yet again as the consummate puzzler of myriad scientific problems as well as the invested participant in social and political engagements. He continues to explore the light quantum whose reality is confirmed by new experiments and to attempt to formulate a unified theory of gravitation and electromagnetism. He travels to South America where he lectures widely on relativity rejoins the International Committee on Intellectual Cooperation and supports the idea of a European union. Einstein has a fourteen-month romantic relationship with his secretary Betty Neumann which ends in October 1924. paperback

A9781138171190Hardback. New. The world would be a very different place if it were not for Albert Einstein. Like Newton and Galileo before him this remarkable scientist changed forever mankind's understanding of the universe. In 1921 five years after proclaiming his general theory of relativity Einstein was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics in recognition of his remarkable achievements. In the same year he travelled to the United States to give four lectures that consolidated his theory and sought to explain its meaning to a new audience. These lectures were published the following year as The Meaning of Relativity which he revised with each new edition until his death. It remains a key work for anyone wishing to discover at first hand the workings of one of the most inspiring minds of the twentieth century. hardcover
