The quite rare first edition and first appearance in print rarely found in this fine condition unopened and in original wrappers! During the early years of the second decade of this century Einstein was also concerned to clarify misconceptions about the theory of relativity and to present his views on natural sciences on a less abstract level. Among the efforts in this direction his particular beautiful lecture on "Geometry and Experience" stands out. At the Prussian Academy's commemorative session honouring Frederick the Great founder of the Academy Einstein delivered this lecture in which he summed up his views on the geometrization of physics and relativity and the relation of mathematics to the external world. Here he gave his famous answer to the puzzling question of why mathematics should be so well adapted to describing the external world: "Insofar as the Laws of Mathematics refer to the external world they are not certain; and insofar as they are certain they do not refer to reality. The lecture was extended to book form. cf. W.Alicke. Weil No.114; Schlipp-Shields No.148 unknown

Its earliest and one of its most significant developments was Einstein's application of the theory to what is known as the 'photo-electrical effect'.Einstein explained this effext by suggesting that the classical view that light is emitted in the form of continous waves must be abandoned. The photo-electrical effect could be explained only as an example of quantum action where the waves of light or X-rays are emitted in minute particles or bullets. It is he size of the bullet the wave-lenght of the radiation which determines the number of electrons ejected.

19151200Braunschweig: Friedr. Vieweg & Sohn 1915. 1st Edition. FIRST EDITION FULL BOUND VOLUME OF THE EINSTEIN-DE HAAS EFFECT -- an experimental observation that illustrates the relationship between magnetism and angular momentum and in which a change in the magnetic moment causes the rotation of a free body. In this 1915 paper Albert Einstein and Wander de Haas report that changing the magnetization of a suspended iron rod by applying an external magnetic field leads to mechanical rotation of the rod - a result that still stands as a textbook illustration of the relationship between magnetism and angular momentum. Papers by Planck The Quantum Hypothesis for Molecules with Multiple Degrees of Freedom von Laue Warburg Siegbahn and Born are also present. <br /> <br /> Einstein had long contemplated Ampère's 1820 conjecture that magnetism is caused by the microscopic circular motions of electric charges. In light of this Einstein and de Haas devised an experiment to test not just Ampère's hypothesis but also "Lorentz's theory that the rotating particles are electrons. The aim of the experiment was to measure the torque generated by a reversal of the magnetization of an iron cylinder" Calaprice Einstein Almanac 52. <br /> <br /> In the experiment Einstein and de Haas designed "a magnetic material was suspended with the aid of a thin string inside a magnetic field coil. When the magnetic field was increased by the application of an electric current through the field coil the magnetic material is magnetized. In order to keep the total magnetic moment of the magnetic material constant the latter rotates. This classical Einstein-de Haas effect demonstrates that the spin angular momentum is of the same nature as the angular momentum of rotating bodies as conceived in classical mechanics" Ganzhorn Nature Communications 7 11443 2016. <br /> <br /> Einstein spoke enthusiastically of the experimental results he and de Haas has achieved stating that they had "given firm proof of the existence of Ampère's molecular currents" Pais Subtle is the Lord 245. <br /> <br /> ALSO INCLUDED: Papers by Planck "Die Quantenhypotese für Molekeln mit mehreren Freiheitsgraden" and "Bemerkung über die Entropiekonstante zweiatomiger Gase" as well as a paper by von Laue "Die Einsteinischen Energieschwankungen" CONDITION & DETAILS: Braunschweig: Friedr.

Complete. Quarto. Offprint from Sitzungsberichten der Preussischen Akademie der Wissenschaften. Berlin: 1922. First edition in very fine condition. This superb offprint is a separate printing of the Prussian Academy's session reports here with independent pagination. A small number of such off prints were presented to the author by the publisher as voucher copies. References: Schilpp-Shields 162; Weil 120. This paper gives evidence that Einsteins ideas on the photon were not able to contradict classical theory. "Since after 1917 Einstein firmly believed that light-quanta were here to stay it is not surprising that he would look for new ways in which the existence of photons might lead to observable deviation from the classical picture. In this he did not succeed. At one point in 1921 he thought he had found a new quantum criterion but it soon turned out to be a false lead as demonstrated in this paper". An excellent example. "The early Offprints from "Sitzungsberichten." are called "Sonderabdruck" up to Weil No.165 including this. From Weil 166 they are called "Sonderausgabe.". - Before 161 up to 160 the Offprints do not have separate title and pagination the pagination follows the numbering in the periodical. From 166 the Offprint has both separate printed title and pagination. - So Weil Nos 161-165 is still "Abdruck" but with separate title and pagination.
