Description
An engaging examination of one of the greatest minds of the twentieth century
This volume is the first systematic presentation of the work of Albert Einstein, comprised of fourteen essays by leading historians and philosophers of science. Meant to introduce readers to the work of the scientist, the Companion begins with an introduction that places Einstein's work in the context of his life and times. The essays themselves focus on Einstein’s work—the papers of Einstein's “miracle year” of 1905, covering Brownian motion, light quanta, and special relativity; his contributions to early quantum theory and the opposition to his light quantum hypothesis; Einstein's path to the general theory of relativity in 1915 and the beginnings of two fields it spawned; and much more.
