can you kindly recommend me to a book in respect to your signature.

One tin about science is that earlier scientists lay the foundation for the nxt generation to continue the building... Like, Galileo who was the founding father for the newtonian type of motion, according to Galileo, a body is supposed to be in motion but a force causes it to stop moving and be at rest which was a direct contradiction to the ideas of Aristotle which has it that a body must be at rest (ie its natural state of inertia) but it is due to a force that causes it to be in motion... Newton jux sided with the Galilean reasoning at the expense of the Aristotles' n developed his ideas from there...Other young scientists like Coulombs developed their electrostatic principles from the earlier newtonian reasoning...So is the Pythagoreans such as Cupernicus whose principles were based on the teachings of their teacher, Pythagoras... Einstein n co also had earlier scientists whose reasoning they bought into n a such drove their own thoughts n principles through the roads of such earlier scientists... The question therefore is not who is the greatest, but whose ideas do u side with.??..

Mirallas:
. Another one is John von Neumann.

Exactly! That Von Neumann could calculator mathematical problems in his head effortlessly without a calculator. He was also a child prodigy. They are many of them that were brilliant who lived during Einstein time eg. Lev Landau, Wolfgang Pauli, Erwin Schrodinger, Max Plank, Niels Bohr etc. They were all very brilliant guys. Einstein was great though.

Thanks.
Any link to get the pdf?

they were both great in their own right and unique taent

Science is not football or music .
There is no room for who is greater or lesser in science.
Nairaland is the last place to expect good answers for questions like this.

Mirallas:

But you can't launch a rocket with a satellite into orbit without the knowledge of projectiles, which laid the foundation for surveillance.�

how can we use that on the football pitch?

We are talking about who is greater here not about who's the best.
With that criteria,then Newton;based on his impact-which is the foremost yardstick for measuring greatness-is unarguably greater.
If you mean the one who's work possess more originality and insight then that's obviously Einstein.

Newton is father of mechanics,but I go for Einstein because of relativity,it is extremely difficult to relate energy equals mass *speed of light square..... Newton basically covers more aspect in physics but Einstein gave modern physics

To me Einstein seem smarter than his time.. He is the brightest mind the world has ever known,giving accurate prediction still applicable till now

DaddyTechz:
Tesla.

Thank you!

The greatest physicist and inventor in recent history was Nikola Tesla. He argued about the Electric Universe theory which makes a lot of sense. Electricity and Magnetism, in this dual creation of the most high, is the only scientific explanation that sort of addresses a creator aspect of our Universe, though not directly. The father of AC electricity and free energy.

Newtonian Physics is outdated and Albert Einstein's theory of relativity is incomplete.
Scientific experiments have shown that matter can be viewed as a wave or particle based on the mind of the observer and there are instances in a vacuum when time and space do not exist, like the experiment which showed that a particle could be observed in 2 places at the same time under certain conditions. These disprove Einstein's theory of relativity, which Tesla said was flawed as well.
All energetic forms of matter (solid, liquid, gas, etc.) when broken down to its smallest particle is found to contain only space, shows that Newtonian physics is a huge farce. Idk why it is still taught in schools.

Quantum physicists have yet to find that God particle which supposedly holds the whole Universe together, and until they do so, Newton and Einstein are dead to me, literally and figuratively.

derrydinny:
newton's laws are somehow stupid, einstein's were beyond the thinking faculty of geniuses but the greatest of all scientists is galileo

Look at the balls on this guy. Hahahahaha

2/10. Nice kindergarten-tier trolling.

You got brains bro

fakuta:
are you in heaven now?

U wanna say hi to father Abraham?....

Newton is the real deal.
Einstein is a sham. Can anyone point the significance of e= mc2 which has been rightly debunked by Nikola Tesla.
It's so unfortunate that most people haven't heard of that name because his philosophy is against what the capitalist who sponsor scientist.
Can you imagine life without AC current.
I think you should read about Nikola Tesla and you will view science from another angle and dimension.

Nikola Tesla

It's just like d rivalry between Ronaldo and Messi..... No Victor, no Vanquished
