摘要
As readers would be aware, Einstein presented his Special Theory of Relativity in 1905. It soon became clear that while this theory could encompass mechanics and electromagnetism, gravity lay beyond its reach. The effort to reconcile special relativity with Newtonian gravitation theory turned out to be exception ally demanding, and it led to the General Theory which transcends both these starting points.
