Verh. Ges. Naturf. Ärzte, 85.Vers. Wien 1913. - 1+2/1 Bd.: Naturwissenschaftliche Abteilungen. - Leipzig, F.C.W. Vogel, 1914, 8°, (4), 366, VIII, 834 pp., 108 Abbildungen, 3 Taf., Halbledereinband der Zeit; feines Expl. First and original edition of Einstein's famous lecture in a well preserved copy. By 1913 Einstein had reached a temporary impasse, following the publication of his and Marcel Grossmann's "Entwurf einer Verallgemeinerten Relalitivitätstheorie.". but his view on the need for generalising the Special Theory aroused great interest, and in September he but them before the 85th Congress., held in Vienna. The auditorium was packed with scientists anxious to hear about a theory even more outlandish than Special Relativity. In some ways they were disappointed. Instead of the esoteric explanations they had expected, there came one of Einstein's minor masterpieces of simple statement, an account in which he compared the development of the various theories of gravitation with the development of successive concepts of electricity.
