Abstract :
Albert Einstein was born 100 years ago on the 14th March 1879. 26 years later, in 1905, he published three papers, one of which expounded the Special Theory of Relativity. In 1915, he published his General Theory, which predicted the bending of light rays passing near the sun. When, in 1919, the prediction was apparently confirmed experimentally, Einstein achieved great fame. But was all this adulation deserved?
