Binding: Contemporary full red cloth title on flat spine debossed stamped title on the upper board lacks the dust jacket. Notes: Albert Einstein 1879 – 1955 was a German-born theoretical physicist who developed the theory of relativity one of the two pillars of modern physics alongside quantum mechanics. His work is also known for its influence on the philosophy of science. He is best known to the general public for his mass–energy equivalence formula which has been dubbed "the world's most famous equation". He received the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics "for his services to theoretical physics and especially for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect" a pivotal step in the development of quantum theory.

Einstein and also Mayer would have to flee Germany due to their Jewish origins only a few months later. - Einstein's work on semivectors ""was stimulated by Ehrenfest's insistence on a better understanding of the relation between single-valued and double-valued representations of the Lorentz group . . .

Einstein is known for developing the theory of relativity which is one of the two pillars of modern physics. His work greatly influenced the philosophy of science and for producing the world's most famous equation 'E= mc2'. He won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921 for his services to theoretical physics and for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect. The papers to this work include Einstein's papers on Bose-Einstein condensation the phenomenon that causes bosons to become a superfluid at low temperatures. There is also Einstein's two part commentary on Kaluza's theory involving field equations in five-dimensional space. These papers are from the Royal Prussian Academy of Sciences which was first established in 1700. In uniform full cloth bindings. With the original paper wraps bound in. Externally all volumes are very smart. Light fading to the spine. Light shelfwear to the joints. Small split to the front joint of 1929 volume.
