Book Description

This index volume provides quick access to the most authoritative compilation of documents and information concerning Einstein's work and correspondence for the first half of his life. It offers readers a Cumulative Index to the first ten volumes of the collected papers, the first complete bibliography of Einstein's scientific and nonscientific writings until 1921, and a succinct biographical time line. This volume is an invaluable research tool for delving into Einstein's written legacy; his interactions with colleagues, institutions, friends, and family; and his scientific, political, educational, and social activities. Volume 11 presents three important and unique bibliographies: the List of Writings, 1891-1921; the Einstein Bibliography, 1901-1921; and a Cumulative Bibliography and Index of Citations for Volumes 1-10. The List of Writings includes all of Einstein's manuscripts that remained unpublished by 1921, while the Einstein Bibliography includes documents that were republished during this period. The Cumulative Bibliography and Index of Citations lists all literature written by authors cited in at least one of the first ten volumes of the series. This volume also contains two complete lists of Einstein's correspondence up through 1920, and a Chronology of Einstein's life for the years 1879-1921. The first list presents the correspondence in chronological order, while the second list presents the correspondence in alphabetical order by correspondent. The indexes and bibliographies implicitly correct inconsistencies and errata across the different volumes. Other corrections are explicitly collected in a List of Errata for the first ten volumes of the series.

Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein (March 14, 1879 – April 18, 1955) was a German, Swiss and American physicist, of Jewish parents. In Physics, he published a research paper on the photoelectric effect, among three hundred other scientific papers of him in the equivalence of matter and energy, quantum mechanics, and others, and his proven conclusions led to the interpretation of many scientific phenomena that classical physics failed to prove. Einstein began with "special relativity" that contradicted Newton's theory of time and space to solve in particular the problems of the old theory regarding electromagnetic waves in general, and light in particular, and that was between (1902-1909) in Switzerland. As for "general relativity", he put it forward in 1915, in which he discussed gravity, and it represents the current description of gravity in modern physics. General relativity generalizes both special relativity and Newton's law of universal gravitation, by providing a unified description of gravity as a geometric property of space and time, or spacetime.
