About this book

Einstein considers the ether in space and its relationship to relativity in an address delivered in 1920. Sidelights on Relativity pairs that discussion with an exploration of geometry and experience. Beginning with everyday ideas of cause and contact, he traces how gravity, action at a distance and the wave theory of light encouraged physicists to imagine a medium filling space.

Albert Einstein - BDeBooks
Albert Einstein

Einstein was a patent clerk in Bern in 1905 when he published four papers in a single year, on the photoelectric effect, Brownian motion, special relativity and mass-energy equivalence, any one of which would have made a career.
