چکیده
A LBERT EINSTEIN was born seventy years ago, on 14 March 1879, in Germany. When he was still a boy, his family moved first to Switzerland and then to Italy. He wasn't a. very bright boy. He didn't care for any school subjects, except mathematics ; and he disliked the disciplines of German schools enough to run away at least once. He had some difficulty in qualifying to take a degree. And the best job he could get was as a minor official in the Swiss Patent Office. That is what E. nstetn was in 1905 : a junior Swiss patent official. But that year, 1905, was his anDUs mirabilis, his wonderful year. In that year, at the age of 26, he published a series of papers which made outstanding advances in three qtr.'te separate branches of physics. The most famous of these was his first paper on Relativity. In ten years from 1905, Einstein created a revolution in physics. He became at the same time a recognized leader and the enfant terrible of science.
