In the shadows of Einstein and Galbraith Mustapha Temidayo By Segun Ayobolu At the beginning of the new millennium in Y2000, leading writers and editors in the stable of the defunct Concord group of newspapers were assigned to write full page discourses on who they perceived to be the most influential man or woman of the preceding millennium. Mr. Tunji Bello, who was Daily Editor of the newspaper at that time, chose the great, Nobel Prize winning physicist, Albert Einstein, as his man of the millennium. In doing so, he adduced as the reason for his choice, Einstein’s relativity theory, which not only changed the way scientists understood the world, but also transformed fundamentally the focus, theories and concepts of scientific research.
