Description

The Albert Einstein Collection presents a landmark set of scientific works by one of the most influential thinkers of all time. This illustrated volume brings together Einstein’s most groundbreaking texts, including On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies, which introduced the special theory of relativity, and The Foundation of the Generalised Theory of Relativity, which redefined our understanding of gravity. These works showcase Einstein’s revolutionary ideas that transformed the foundations of physics. Also included is The Meaning of Relativity, a lucid summary of Einstein’s theories delivered in lecture form, and Sidelights on Relativity, which offers philosophical reflections and insights into the implications of relativity on science and society. With clarity and intellectual depth, these writings make complex ideas accessible to both scholars and general readers. The collection is enhanced with illustrations that clarify key concepts and highlight the historical context of each text. Whether you are a physics enthusiast, a student of science, or simply curious about the universe, this volume offers a rare opportunity to engage directly with the original works of a scientific genius whose legacy continues to shape our modern world.
