Max Bernhard Weinstein (1 September 1852 in Kaunas,〔(Berlin im Jahr 1852 (Berlin in 1852) ): "Max Bernhard Weinstein wird in Kowno (Kaunas/Litauen) geboren. Weinstein war seit 1886 Privatdozent für Physik und Geographie an der Berliner Universität." ''Translation'': "Max Bernard Weinstein was born in Kovno (Kaunas / Lithuania). Weinstein was since 1886 a lecturer in physics and geography at the University of Berlin."〕 Vilna Governorate – 25 March 1918) was a German physicist and philosopher. He is best known as an opponent of Albert Einstein's Theory of Relativity, and for having written a broad examination of the theological theory of Pandeism. The Russian-born〔''The Symbolic Universe: Geometry and Physics 1890-1930'', page 104, by Jeremy Gray. 1999.〕 Weinstein translated James Clerk Maxwell's ''Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism'' into German in 1883,〔''The Historical Development of Quantum Theory'', page 33, by Jagdish Mehra and Helmut Rechenberg, 2000.〕 and taught courses on electrodynamics at the University of Berlin.〔''The Historical Development of Quantum Theory'', page 33, by Jagdish Mehra and Helmut Rechenberg. 2000.〕 While teaching at the Institute of Physics in the University of Berlin, Weinstein associated with Max Planck, Emil du Bois-Reymond, Hermann von Helmholtz, Ernst Pringsheim, Sr., Wilhelm Wien, Carl A. Paalzow of the Technische Hochschule in Berlin Charlottenburg, August Kundt, Werner von Siemens, theologian Adolph von Siemens, historian Theodor Mommsen, and Germanic philologist Wilhelm Scherer.〔''Review of theology & philosophy - Volume 7'', page 576, by Allan Menzies. 1912.〕 == Criticism of Einstein's theory of relativity ==
Perhaps most notably, Weinstein was among the first to reject and criticize Albert Einstein's theory of relativity, contending that "general relativity had removed gravity from its earlier isolated position and made it into a "world power" controlling all laws of nature," and warning that "physics and mathematics would have to be revised."〔''Einstein's Jury: The Race to Test Relativity'', page 102, by Jeffrey Crelinsten. 2006.〕 It was Weinstein's writings, and their impact driving public sentiment against Einstein's theories, which led astronomer Wilhelm Foerster to convince Einstein to write a more accessible explanation of those ideas.〔 But, one commentator contends that Weinstein's summaries of relativistic physics were "tedious exercises in algebra."〔Peter Galison, ''Science and Society: The History of Modern Physical Science in the Twentieth Century'', p. 288, 2001.〕
