Einstein's papers go on-line
Web site gives free access to Nobellist's writings.




Albert Einstein's writings about science, politics and travel are now just a
click away on the Internet.

More than 230 scientific manuscripts, 740 non-scientific essays and 5 travel
diaries have been digitized and entered into a free, searchable database,
hosted by the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena. Many of the
articles have never been seen by the public before, says Diana Kormos Buchwald,
director of the Einstein Papers Project.

"I am simply thrilled," says Jrgen Renn of the Max Planck Institute for the
History of Science in Berlin, who has been pushing for electronic publication
of the documents for more than a decade. "Einstein is interesting for a broad
intellectual community and he is a public figure for science."

The online project is a collaboration between the Hebrew University in
Jerusalem, the California Institute of Technology, and Princeton University
Press. Its launch coincides with a symposium on Einstein's papers hosted by the
American Museum of Natural History in New York.
