The Extraordinary Genius of Albert Einstein

For more, see: http://larouchepac.com/einstein
The core of the video is a workshop pedagogical on the Theory of Special Relativity as part of the educational process conducted by our youth leadership, not for the sake of understanding the theory itself, but using Einstein's particular discovery as a case study to demonstrate and walk people through real human thinking, as being something above sense perceptions or opinions. We end with reflecting on the principle of relativity in terms of social relations and individual identities or thought processes, asking the question --how was Einstein able to make his breakthrough?

Relativity is the work of Poincare. He himself wrote first the "relativity" word and worked all of it using Leibitz work. Einstein just removed the aether and kept everything else. He is not a fraud, being imaginative, but 90 % of his work came from others. This is more than known, check Wikipedia about it.

All scientific breakthroughs builds AND breaks from what came before. Einstein always said the same himself and praised these previous scientist.

This 4m x 4m treadmill "example" is one of the reasons I hated school .. artificial problems where the expected "solution" hasn't been thought of properly .. the person only has to run 4 meters, not 5 meters, if they start at the rightmost edge (which of course anyone with half a brain would do) .. if they can run from one edge to the other within 1 second, they've crossed the treadmill before the 3m/s motion left has had the time to push them off the treadmill

Right, he was a terrible person.

Not exclusively; it's certainly not where he heard of Henri (Wiki), that's just easy access I guess he (Gilbooooify) suggests; Einstein is famous for the work of French,Dutch, Swedish, and German persons unwitting precursors; the world would be better off had he (Einstein) not engaged.

PLAGIARIST.
