Description

This comprehensive historical examination traces the evolution of scientific thought from Newton's classical mechanics through Einstein's revolutionary field theory. The book illuminates how Faraday, Maxwell, Hertz and other pioneering physicists tackled fundamental problems that reshaped our understanding of reality. By analysing the specific challenges each scientist confronted and the innovative solutions they developed, the author provides essential context for comprehending Einstein's special theory of relativity. Rather than presenting abstract concepts in isolation, this work demonstrates how each discovery emerged from concrete problems in physics, showing exactly where Einstein's contributions differed from and built upon his predecessors' work. Part of the Routledge Library Editions series on 20th Century Science, this volume offers historians, students and science enthusiasts a clear narrative pathway through one of humanity's most transformative intellectual periods.

Key Features

Traces the development of field theory from Newton through Einstein, explaining how each scientist's work led to new discoveries and paradigm shifts.

Examines Faraday, Maxwell, Hertz and other key physicists, revealing the specific problems they faced and how their solutions advanced scientific understanding.

Provides detailed analysis of Einstein's special theory of relativity by contextualising the exact problems that prompted its invention and development.

Part of the Routledge Library Editions series focused on 20th Century Science, offering scholarly historical perspective on fundamental physics.
