"In his 1905 papers, Einstein actually used two apparently
contradictory interpretations of the nature of light. In the paper on
light quanta, Einstein had argued forcefully for the return to
Newton's particulate conception of light. Yet in the same year, in his
development of special relativity, Einstein had rejected a particulate
emission theory of light and had used the traditional Maxwell wave
theory. This striking ability to juggle two viewpoints apparently at
odds was characteristic of Einstein's thought..."

John Stachel: "It is not so well known that there was "another
Einstein," who from 1916 on was skeptical about the continuum as a
foundational element in physics..." Albert Einstein: "I consider it
entirely possible that physics cannot be based upon the field concept,
that is on continuous structures. Then nothing will remain of my whole
castle in the air, including the theory of gravitation, but also
nothing of the rest of contemporary physics."

I have material in my book/film about Einstein named man of the
century and people semitically announcing in 1999-2000 that all great
scientific findings were aleady named.
