Saturday, December 30, 2023

 


n this extract from Glimpses of World History, Nehru acknowledges the vastness of knowledge and the challenges of specialization. And then he discusses individuals who have risen over such narrow focus and can see human knowledge in its entirety. For example, he discusses Albert Einstein's groundbreaking work, particularly the Theory of Relativity, and its experimental confirmation during a solar eclipse.
