“This authoritative centenary edition is a fitting tribute to Einstein’s efforts to make his concepts accessible―in turn, helping to raise the profile of basic science and modern physics on a global scale.”Mary Craig, Nature

 

“This book is not only an important historical document, but displays the style and clarity of Einstein’s thought in a manner accessible to a wide readership. It’s good that it is being reissued in this fine new edition to mark the centenary of his greatest insights.”Martin Rees, Trinity College, University of Cambridge, and Astronomer Royal

 

“Nobody is better at explaining relativity than Einstein himself. . . . This 100th anniversary edition is complemented by commentary from Gutfreund and Renn, who clarify some key points and add historical perspective, making Einstein’s own words even more accessible and meaningful.”Tom Siegfried, Science News

Relativity is the basic theory of time and space and gravity, mainly by Albert Einstein founded, according to the study of different objects into special relativity and general relativity. The basic assumption of relativity is the principle of relativity, that is, the law of physics has nothing to do with the choice of the reference system.

The difference between the special relativity and the generalized relativity is that the former discusses the physical law between the frame of reference (inertial reference system) of the uniform linear motion, which is extended to the reference frame with the acceleration (non-inertial system) The principle of the principle of the assumption, widely used in gravitational field. Relativity greatly changed the concept of “common sense” of human beings to the universe and nature, and put forward new concepts such as “simultaneous relativity”, “four dimensions” and “curved space and time”. It developed Newtonian mechanics to promote the development of physics to a new height.

 

About the Author

Albert Einstein (1879–1955) was born in Germany and became an American citizen in 1940. A world-famous theoretical physicist, he was awarded the 1921 Nobel Prize for Physics and is renowned for his Theory of Relativity. In addition to his scientific work, Einstein was an influential humanist who spoke widely about politics, ethics, and social causes. After leaving Europe, Einstein taught at Princeton University. His theories were instrumental in shaping the atomic age.
