Who is the British astrophysicist who announced Einstein's Theory of General Relativity to the English-speaking world in 1919?
Criticism of the theory of relativity Mach's principle, one can think of these gravitational fields as induced by the distant masses. In this respect the criticism of Lenard and Mie has been vindicated, since according to the modern consensus, in agreement with Einstein's own mature views, Mach's principle as originally conceived by Einstein is not actually supported by general relativity, as already mentioned above. Ludwik Silberstein, who initially was a supporter of the special theory, objected at different occasions against general relativity. In 1920 he argued that the deflection of light by the sun, as observed by Arthur Eddington et al. (1919), is not necessarily a
The Einstein Theory of Relativity The Einstein Theory of Relativity The Einstein Theory of Relativity (1923) is a silent short film directed by Dave Fleischer and released by Fleischer Studios. In August 1922.."Scientific American" published an article explaining their position that a silent film would be unsuccessful in presenting Albert Einstein's theory of relativity to the general public. They argued that only as part of a broader educational package including lecture and text would such film be successful. "Scientific American" then went on to review frames from an unnamed German film reported to be financially successful. Six months later, on February 8, 1923, the Fleischers
