Einstein is known for developing the theory of relativity which is one of the two pillars of modern physics. His work greatly influenced the philosophy of science and for producing the world's most famous equation 'E= mc2'. He won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921 for his services to theoretical physics and for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect. The papers to this work include Einstein's papers on Bose-Einstein condensation the phenomenon that causes bosons to become a superfluid at low temperatures. There is also Einstein's two part commentary on Kaluza's theory involving field equations in five-dimensional space. These papers are from the Royal Prussian Academy of Sciences which was first established in 1700. In uniform full cloth bindings. With the original paper wraps bound in. Externally all volumes are very smart. Light fading to the spine. Light shelfwear to the joints. Small split to the front joint of 1929 volume. A few marks to the tail of spines with evidence of library label removal. Internally all volumes are firmly bound. Institutional stamp to the verso of original wraps bound in for the Bodleian Library with their cancellation stamps. Repair to the front wrap of 1928 wrap. Minor chips to the occasional extremity. Pages are slightly age toned to edges due to paper used. Otherwise pages are very clean. Very Good Indeed Akademie der Wissenchaften hardcover

193313747Los Angeles 1933. Signed by the photographer Aaron Tycko of Los Angeles. Prominently signed “Albert Einstein. 1933†below image. Rarely seen photograph of the famous scientist taken during his last visit to Southern California in January 1933 the month Hitler took power in his native Germany. During the five-month trip Einstein 1879-1955 spent most of his time at the Mount Wilson Observatory and the California Institute of Technology where he was offered a position. Later that year he renounced his German citizenship and accepted a professorship at the Institute for Advanced Studies in Princeton New Jersey.<br /> <br /> Tycko 1893-1975 was based in Los Angeles and often photographed Einstein along with other Hollywood icons of the early twentieth century including Irving Berlin. At the time this photograph was taken Tycko also shot a well-known photograph of Einstein with his wife Elsa. Interestingly Tycko is mention in Einstein’s FBI files because a Hollywood informant reported that the photographer believed Einstein was a communist. This informant contended that Tycko thought Einstein was “the brain that was setting up Hollywood in the 1930’s for the big Communist push . . . He was one of the most dangerous and powerful figures in what has become the Communist movement.†<br /> <br /> Jerome The Einstein File: J.
