An engaging popular history of Einstein's General Theory of Relativity, taking in the sheer magnificence of its discovery, as well as the infighting that the theory sparked across a century. Albert Einstein's General Theory of Relativity is possibly the most perfect intellectual achievement in modern physics. Anything that involves gravity, the force that powers everything on the largest, hottest or densest of scales, can be explained by it.From the moment Einstein first proposed the theory in 1915, it was received with enthusiasm yet also with tremendous resistance, and for the following ninety years was the source of a series of feuds, vendettas, ideological battles and persecutions featuring a colourful cast of characters.A gripping, vividly told story, A Perfect Theory entangles itself with the flashpoints of modern history and is the first complete popular history of the theory, showing how it has informed our understanding of exactly what the universe is made of and how much is still undiscovered: from the work of the giant telescopes in the deserts of Chile to our newest ideas about black holes and the Large Hadron Collider deep under French and Swiss soil.

Pedro G. Ferreira, Books, Science and Nature, The Perfect Theory: A Century Of Geniuses And The Battle Over General Relativity, How did one eleganttheory incite a scientific revolution?Physicists have been exploring, debating, and questioningthe general theory of relativity ever since Albert Einstein first presented itin 1915. Their work has uncovered a number of the universe's more surprisingsecrets, and many believe further wonders remain hidden within the theory'stangle of equations, waiting to be exposed. In this sweeping narrative ofscience and culture, astrophysicist Pedro Ferreira brings general relativity tolife through the story of the brilliant physicists, mathematicians, andastronomers who have taken up its challenge. For these scientists, the theoryhas been both a treasure trove and an enigma, fueling a century of intellectualstruggle and triumph.Einstein's theory, which explains the relationships amonggravity, space, and time, is possibly the most perfect intellectual achievementof modern physics, yet studying it has always been a controversial endeavor.Relativists were the target of persecution in Hitler's Germany, hounded inStalin's Russia, and disdained in 1950s America. Even today, doctorate studentsare warned that specializing in general relativity will make them unemployable.Despite these pitfalls, general relativity has flourished,delivering key insights into our understanding of the origin of time and theevolution of all the stars and galaxies in the cosmos. Its adherents haverevealed what lies at the farthest reaches of the universe, shed light on thesmallest scales of existence, and explained how the fabric of reality emerges.Dark matter, dark energy, black holes, and string theory are all progeny ofEinstein's theory.We are in the midst of a momentous transformation in modernphysics. As scientists look farther and more clearly into space than everbefore, The Perfect Theory reveals the greater relevance ofgeneral relativity, showing us where it started, where it has led, and where itcan still take us.
