It means "A Coherent Theory of the Electro-Magnetic Field" and is the title of a five-page paper of highest mathematical formulae which Relativist Albert Einstein worked on for ten years and last week handed to the Prussian Academy of Sciences in Berlin for criticism. Soon it will be published.
His report is a purely mathematical extension of the general theory of relativity to include gravitational and electromagnetic phenomena.
His relativity theory, which he phrased within only three printed pages, made time & space the creator of matter. Newton believed space independent of time. Some 3-775 books have been written to explain Einstein relativity and its implications in cosmic mechanics.
Albert Einstein now applies it himself to explain earthly physical activities—the pull of gravity, the pulsations of electromagnetic waves or quanta.
Said he in Berlin last week: "There is no occasion for anybody to be excited about it. There will be only a few mathematicians who will be inclined to read it and. although I never did make that statement which was ascribed to me that only eleven people in the world could understand relativity, I really don't believe that there will be more than a handful of people who will take the trouble to follow its argument."
