Albert Einstein

Paper Summary:

This paper offers a detailed history of Einstein and the effects his works have on the world, including nuclear energy. It discusses his many theories and explains that often times these works were of religious motivation. The paper also discusses Einsteins effect not only in the science arena, but also on art and the development of Modernism and Post-Modernism in particular.

From the Paper:

"In more theoretical terms, Einstein postulated several theories that challenged the nature of time and suggested both its relative nature depending on how it is measured and the possibility that it is reversible, something that clearly went against the traditional view. Einstein is really the figure around whom the changes in both the sense of time and of space swirl, for his theories challenged both and suggested ways in which both time and space could be changed, bent, twisted, and made into something different than people had once believed."
