  • The World as I See It

    Albert Einstein

    Print on Demand (Paperback) (Important Books, July 8, 2013)
    One of the world’s greatest minds addresses religion and science, war and peace, and the treatment of minorities in this authorized collection. In the aftermath of the First World War, Albert Einstein writes about his hopes for the League of Nations, his feelings as a German citizen about the growing anti-Semitism and nationalism of his country, and his myriad opinions about the current affairs of his day. In addition to these political perspectives, The World As I See It reveals the idealistic, spiritual, and witty side of this great intellectual as he approaches topics including “Good and Evil,” “Religion and Science,” “Active Pacifism,” “Christianity and Judaism,” and “Minorities.” Including letters, speeches, articles, and essays written before 1935, this collection offers a complete portrait of Einstein as a humanitarian and as a human being trying to make sense of the changing world around him. This authorized ebook features a new introduction by Neil Berger, PhD, and an illustrated biography of Albert Einstein, which includes rare photos and never-before-seen documents from the Albert Einstein Archives at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
  • Relativity: The Special and General Theory

    Albert Einstein

    Paperback (IAP, Aug. 20, 2009)
    The theory of relativity, or simply relativity, refers specifically to two theories of Albert Einstein: special relativity and general relativity. Special relativity is a theory of the structure of spacetime, introduced by Einstein in 1905 and general relativity is a theory of gravitation that was developed by Einstein in 1907-1915.
  • Relativity: The Special and General Theory

    Albert Einstein

    Paperback (Leopold Classic Library, Nov. 24, 2015)
    About the Book Physics is a natural science that studies matter, its motion and behavior through space and time, and the related topics of energy and force. Physics is a fundamental scientific discipline, whose goal is to understand how the universe works. In the early 20th century the development quantum theory by Max Planck, and Albert Einstein's theory of relativity gave birth to modern physics. Both theories arose due to inaccuracies in classical mechanics. For example, Classical mechanics mistakenly predicted a varying speed of light, which was corrected by Einstein's theory of special relativity.About us Leopold Classic Library has the goal of making available to readers the classic books that have been out of print for decades. While these books may have occasional imperfections, we consider that only hand checking of every page ensures readable content without poor picture quality, blurred or missing text etc. That's why we: republish only hand checked books; that are high quality; enabling readers to see classic books in original formats; that are unlikely to have missing or blurred pages. You can search "Leopold Classic Library" in categories of your interest to find other books in our extensive collection. Happy reading!

  • Relativity: The Special and General Theory

    Albert Einstein

    Paperback (CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, July 17, 2018)
    The present book is intended, as far as possible, to give an exact insight into the theory of Relativity to those readers who, from a general scientific and philosophical point of view, are interested in the theory, but who are not conversant with the mathematical apparatus of theoretical physics. The work presumes a standard of education corresponding to that of a university matriculation examination, and, despite the shortness of the book, a fair amount of patience and force of will on the part of the reader. The author has spared himself no pains in his endeavour to present the main ideas in the simplest and most intelligible form, and on the whole, in the sequence and connection in which they actually originated. In the interest of clearness, it appeared to me inevitable that I should repeat myself frequently, without paying the slightest attention to the elegance of the presentation. I adhered scrupulously to the precept of that brilliant theoretical physicist L. Boltzmann, according to whom matters of elegance ought to be left to the tailor and to the cobbler. I make no pretence of having withheld from the reader difficulties which are inherent to the subject. On the other hand, I have purposely treated the empirical physical foundations of the theory in a "step-motherly" fashion, so that readers unfamiliar with physics may not feel like the wanderer who was unable to see the forest for the trees. May the book bring some one a few happy hours of suggestive thought!

    Albert Einstein

    Hardcover (Routledge, May 29, 2001)
    Time's 'Man of the Century', Albert Einstein is the unquestioned founder of modern physics. His theory of relativity is the most important scientific idea of the modern era. In this short book Einstein explains, using the minimum of mathematical terms, the basic ideas and principles of the theory which has shaped the world we live in today. Unsurpassed by any subsequent books on relativity, this remains the most popular and useful exposition of Einstein's immense contribution to human knowledge.
