This volume is the first systematic presentation of the work of
Albert Einstein, comprised of fourteen essays by leading historians
and philosophers of science that introduce readers to his work.
Following an introduction that places Einstein's work in the
context of his life and times, the book opens with essays on the
papers of Einstein's miracle year, 1905, covering Brownian motion,
light quanta, and special relativity, as well as his contributions
to early quantum theory and the opposition to his light quantum
hypothesis. Further essays relate Einstein's path to the general
theory of relativity (1915) and the beginnings of two fields it
spawned, relativistic cosmology and gravitational waves. Essays on
Einstein's later years examine his unified field theory program and
his critique of quantum mechanics. The closing essays explore the
relation between Einstein's work and twentieth-century philosophy,
as well as his political writings."
