There have been many versions published since the original in 1916 the latest in December 2011. The work has been labeledby whom unique in that it gives readers an insight into the thought processes of one of the greatest minds of the 20th century.Albert Einstein 14 March 1879 - 18 April 1955 was a German-born theoretical physicist who developed the theory of relativity one of the two pillars of modern physics alongside quantum mechanics. His work is also known for its influence on the philosophy of science. He is best known to the general public for his mass-energy equivalence formula which has been dubbed "the world's most famous equation". He received the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics "for his services to theoretical physics and especially for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect" a pivotal step in the development of quantum theory.Near the beginning of his career Einstein thought that Newtonian mechanics was no longer enough to reconcile the laws of classical mechanics with the laws of the electromagnetic field. This led him to develop his special theory of relativity during his time at the Swiss Patent Office in Bern 1902-1909. He subsequently realized that the principle of relativity could be extended to gravitational fields and published a paper on general relativity in 1916 introducing his theory of gravitation. He continued to deal with problems of statistical mechanics and quantum theory which led to his explanations of particle theory and the motion of molecules. He also investigated the thermal properties of light and the quantum theory of radiation the basis of laser which laid the foundation of the photon theory of light. In 1917 he applied the general theory of relativity to model the structure of the universe.Einstein moved to Switzerland in 1895 and renounced his German citizenship in 1896. After being stateless for more than five years he acquired Swiss citizenship in 1901 which he kept for the rest of his life. Except for one year in Prague he lived in Switzerland between 1895 and 1914.</p> Binker North hardcover
