Talk:Problems with Einstein's general theory of relativity

Suggestions?

This is a slightly ... ambitious ... article. :)

Sensible, constructive suggestions as to how to improve it will be constructively received.

There may be some subtopics that could be split out, like the [[relativity of inertia]].

I've used rather more direct quotes than is normal - my experience with physics folk has been that unless you give them the actual quote, they tend not to believe that the reference is valid. Happily, a lot of this stuff is now online, indexed, searchable and directly linkable, courtesy of the Princeton "Collected Papers of Albert Einstein" project: https://einsteinpapers.press.princeton.edu/ ErkDemon (talk) 01:06, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

The article treats Mathematics as an ethereal discipline in which theorems flow inexorably from axioms. The reality is quite different. At graduate and professional levels, key concepts are intuition and elegance. Had Einstein pursued a career in Mathematics, I believe that he would have been quite comfortable with that mindset. A working mathematician devises conjectures and tries to prove them. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz Username:Chatul (talk) 15:57, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
