- Einstein's miraculous year : five papers that changed the face of physics / by Stachel, John J.,1928-(CARDINAL)758228;
Includes bibliographical references.Pt. 1. Einstein's Dissertation on the Determination of Molecular Dimensions -- Paper 1. A New Determination of Molecular Dimensions -- Pt. 2. Einstein on Brownian Motion -- Paper 2. On the Motion of Small Particles Suspended in Liquids at Rest Required by the Molecular-Kinetic Theory of Heat-- Pt. 3. Einstein on the Theory of Relativity -- Paper 3. On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies-- Paper 4. Does the Inertia of a Body Depend on Its Energy Content? -- Pt. 4. Einstein's Early Work on the Quantum Hypothesis -- Paper 5. On a Heuristic Point of View Concerning the Production and Transformation of Light."After 1905, Einstein's miraculous year, physics would never be the same again. In those twelve months, Einstein shattered many cherished scientific beliefs in five great papers that would establish him as the world's leading physicist. For the first time, this book brings those papers together in an accessible format. An introduction by John Stachel explains their development and historical significance." "The best-known papers are the two that founded special relativity: On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies and Does the Inertia of a Body Depend on Its Energy Content? In the former, Einstein showed that absolute time had to be replaced by a new absolute: the speed of light. In the second, he asserted the equivalence of mass and energy, which would lead to the famous formula E = mc[superscript 2]."--Jacket.
