Why Einstein did not believe that General Relativity geometrizes gravity
General Relativity Einstein Geometrization Unification Inertia Gravity Geodesic Equation Meyerson
2016/6/14
I argue that, contrary to folklore, Einstein never really cared for geometrizing the gravitational or (subsequently) the electromagnetic field; indeed, he thought that the very statement that General ...
Einstein,the reality of space,and the action-reaction principle
Einstein action-reaction spacetime Schlick Mach
2016/6/12
Einstein regarded as one of the triumphs of his 1915 theory of gravity - the general theory of relativity - that it vindicated the action-reaction principle, while Newtonian mechanics as well as his 1...
Proving the Principle:Taking Geodesic Dynamics too Seriously in Einstein's Theory
geodesic principle universality law of motion idealization approximation Einstein general relativity dynamical law phase transitions distributions
2016/5/31
In this paper I critically review the long history of attempts to formulate and derive the geodesic principle, which claims that massive bodies follow geodesic paths in general relativity theory. I ar...
Einstein and Tagore,Newton and Blake,Everett and Bohr:the dual nature of reality
realism idealism quantum
2016/5/31
There are two broad opposing classes of attitudes to reality (realist vs idealist, material vs mental) with corresponding attitudes to knowledge (objective vs subjective, scientific vs romantic). I ar...
At the age of sixteen, Einstein imagined chasing after a beam of light. He later recalled that the thought experiment had played a memorable role in his development of special relativity. Famous as it...
Einstein as the Greatest of the Nineteenth Century Physicists
Einstein relativity quantum atom
2016/5/30
Modern day writers often endow Einstein with a 21st century prescience about physical theory that, it just so happens, is only now vindicated by the latest results of the same writers' research. There...
Albert Einstein read philosophy. It was not an affectation of a celebrity-physicist trying to show his adoring public that he was no mere technician, but a cultured thinker. It was an interest in evid...
Talking at Cross-Purposes. How Einstein and Logical Empiricists never Agreed on what they were Disagreeing about
Moritz Schlick Hans Reichenbach Albert Einstein Hermann Weyl Epistemology of Geometry
2016/5/30
By inserting the dialogue between Einstein, Schlick and Reichenbach in a wider network of debates about the epistemology of geometry, the paper shows, that not only Einstein and Logical Empiricists ca...
The Adolescence of Relativity: Einstein, Minkowski, and the Philosophy of Space and Time
operationalism Einstein Minkowski simultaneity conventionalism
2009/9/16
An often repeated account of the genesis of special relativity tells us that relativity theory was to a considerable extent the fruit of an operationalist philosophy of science. Indeed, Einstein’s 190...
On the role of the Michelson-Morley experiment: Einstein in Chicago
Einstein relativity Michelson-Morley experiment
2009/9/8
This article discusses new material, published in Volume 12 of the Collected Papers of Albert Einstein, that addresses Einstein’s knowledge of the Michelson-Morley experiment prior to 1905: in a lectu...

Length Matters (I): The Einstein-Swann Correspondence and the Constructive Approach to STR
Principle and constructive theories Einstein Relativity Theories
2008/4/22
In this paper and its sequel I discuss a rarely mentioned correspondence between Einstein and W.F.G. Swann on the constructive approach to the special theory of relativity, in which Einstein points ou...

Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox locality
2008/4/22
Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen (EPR) argued that the
quantum-mechanical probabilistic description of physical reality
had to be incomplete, in order to avoid an instantaneous action
