And it really began with Einstein. We attended his lectures. Now the theory of relativity remained - and still remains - only… — Douglas Sirk Copy Share Image
Relativity challenges your basic intuitions that you've built up from everyday experience. It says your experience of time is not what you… — Brian Greene Copy Share Image
No. I had successfully solved the difficulty of finding a description of the electron which was consistent with both relativity and quantum… — Paul Dirac Copy Share Image
There does seem to be a sense in which physics has gone beyond what human intuition can understand. We shouldn't be too… — Richard Dawkins Copy Share Image
