From Newton to Einstein - The Changing Conceptions of the Universe
By Benjamin Harrow, Albert Einstein, Arthur Stanley Eddington, Joseph Sweetman Ames, Joseph John Thomson, Frank Watson Dyson
Length2h 57m
About this audiobook
Einstein's contributions to our ideas of time and space and to our knowledge of the universe in general, are of so momentous a nature, that they easily take their place among the two or three greatest achievements of the twentieth century. This book attempts to give, in popular form, an account of this work. As, however, Einstein's work is so largely dependent upon the work of Newton and Newton's successors, the first two chapters are devoted to the latter.
