... or "Boolen- algebra. The history of mathematics would not be complete if I excluded the most prominent mathematician and physicist of all time, Albert Einstein. His career brought a new light to every aspect of our world, and our universe. Mr. Einstein wrote five landmark papers that cover Brownian motion, the photoelectric effect, and his theory of relativity. It was with his relativity theory that ... he devised his most famous mathematical formula of all time, E=mc. There are very few people who qualify for the term genius, and in my opinion Albert Einstein most definitely qualifies....

Soon, Albert Einstein discovered that temporal specifications were also relative since they were dependant on the observer. For example, observers moving at different velocities will perceive events differently in time. The Eastern thought ... ...
