The Einstein Theory of Relativity, by H.A. Lorentz. Narrated by Denis Daly.
For centuries, Newton’s doctrine of the attraction of gravitation had been the most prominent example of a theory of natural science. However, as with many successful theories, there were some anomalies it could not explain. In his attempts to address these problems, Einstein developed a radical and equally influential theory, that of relativity.
This essay is a classic exposition of the basic elements of Einstein’s theory by his Dutch colleague, Professor H.A. Lorentz.
