A few comments on the Einstein/Maric correspondence: I've now received the
translated letters (Renn and Schulmann, 1992). Something not apparent from
the Lukacs article on which I have commented at length (30 November) is
the preponderance of letters by Einstein in the collection (43 by Einstein

While I can't comment with sophistication on the physics mentioned in
this thread I have to ask a simple question from a human nature
perspective. Having gone through a divorce (and having seen many others
do the same) it seems impossible to imagine a scenario in which the

An addendum to my last posting, relating to the inflated claim made by
Evan Harris Walker about Mileva Maric's supposed contributions to
