Einstein's legacy

As the German chancellor, Gerhard Schröder officially launched
"Einstein year" last week - marking the 100th anniversary of the
publication of much of Einstein's most profound work in 1905, and the
50th anniversary of his death in 1955 - it is worth reminding ourselves
why Albert Einstein is placed upon such a high pedestal. Principally,
it is because he is still regarded as the scientist who changed physics
for ever. The scale of his achievements can be seen in the names of
those whose work Einstein completed or further developed: Riemann,
Maxwell and Planck, to give just three.
