Boobytrap: Was Einstein A Science-Thief????

Albert Einstein was a gifted man

For ages Albert Einstein was considered the smartest man on Earth. According to legend he himself pointed at Nikola Tesla as someone who deserved that acclaim more than he did. However, if he did, there may be another reason for his declining the honorable appellation of a genius: He may have stolen some scientific works from other scientists. As is well-known he battened on the works of his first wife, the Serbian physicist and mathematician, Mileva Maric. Actually, she seems to have registered most of her works in his name because he convinced her that she, being a woman, would be met by prejudices that wouldn't allow her to publish it in her own name. Also he told her that her gender would make both her and her work unnoticed or even rejected as science.

Mileva Maric was the first wife of Albert Einstein

The allegations that he stole the Theory of Relativity from his brilliant wife, Mileva Maric, stems from Abram Fedorovich Joffe who saw the original manuscript, "Zur Elektrodynamik bewegter Korper", and then it was signed with both names. However, later on the name of Mileva Maric was left out when the work was published.

One shouldn't forget that Albert Einstein also collaborated with fellow scientists Jurgen Rehn and Michel Jansis in forming parts of the Theory of Relativity, but somehow "forgot" their contribution after it was made famous. After the murder of his friend, the Egyptian scientist Mustafa Mosharafa, he may have stolen his science.

After his first marriage to the brilliant and also wealthy mathematician, Mileva Maric, he married his first cousin, Elsa, who had no scientific ambitions. Actually, it has been said about her that she could hardly read, but was very good at gate-keeping against all the bothersome fans of this alleged "smartest man on the planet", Albert Eintein.
