The genius at work. Four line formula entirely in Einstein's hand was deciphered by Professor of Physics B. Sinkovic of the University of Connecticut and found to be part of his Derivation of General Relativity, which is a support of the "Big Bang" theory. It was acquired from the estate of Peter A. Buckey, an Einstein biographer who was the Nobel Laureate's driver and young friend. Page is touched by a fairly unobtrusive 1.5" stain, but all writing is very legible. A fascinating look into one of the greatest minds in human intellectual history. Professionally matted and framed beneath a photo of Einstein. 17 x 23, framed.
