Abstract
:
What were Albert
Einstein's first wife’s contributions to his extraordinary productivity
in the first years of his career? A first
biography of Mileva Maric
was published in Serbian
in 1969 but remained largely unknown despite
being translated first in German, then in
French
in the 1990’s. The
publication of Mileva and Albert’s love letters in
1987 brought
more information and more recently, two
publications shed more light on Mileva Maric’s
life and work. I will review this evidence in
its social and historical context to give a better
idea on her contributions.
The book
can be
ordered from Oxford
University Press.
