Einstein's special relativity, established in 1905, unified space and time into a four-dimensional continuum. It relies on two core principles: Galileo's relativity and the constancy of light's speed.

Einstein’s special theory of relativity, published a hundred years ago, also revealed that energy and mass are two sides of the same coin, forever linked in his famed equation E = mc2.

It is an extension of Einstein’s special theory of relativity – but such a massive one that it took him 10 years, from 1905 to 1915, to get from one to the other. Special relativity tells us ...

His theory of special relativity stemmed from his desire to understand the nature of light and what would happen to objects ...

Special' means ‘in certain circumstances’ – so not including the effect of gravity. It took Einstein 10 years to make the theory work for gravity too, which is how general relativity gets ...

One of the themes in the book included Albert Einstein. It mentioned many of his theories. However, the one I kept thinking about is the theory of relativity. My favorite example of this theory is ...

I am the President of Diversified, a CFP and author. While you already may be aware of Albert Einstein and his Theory of Relativity, it’s worth a refresher before we discuss the theory of ...
