Seeking book

I am pursuing a research project on the reception of the physics community and the general population to Einstein's 1905 papers, and to a lesser extent to his 1915 General Theory. I have been able to find little information on this topic. I am particularly interested in the period just after the papers were published, perhaps 1905-1911.

I have located two books Comparative Reception of Relativity (a collection which can be purchased for roughly $300!) and Understanding Relativity: Orign and Impact of a Scientific Revolution by Stanley Goldberg. A little less tailored to my interests is Einstein's Jury by Jeffrey Crelinsten.

Might anyone here have a suggestion?

Not my line of work at all but try issues of the "Daily Princetonian" Princeton newspaper for reactions to his lectures there and his 20 some years as a resident ?

My instinct would be to see what is cited by the plentiful Einstein biographies in their discussions of 1905--1911. But perhaps that is how you located the two works you mention.

>3 daschaich: Thanks. They are astonishingly thin on the topic. In fact Part of my initial interest came from the tantalizing suggestion that the response was slow, without elaboration.

>2 DugsBooks: Worth a try, I think. Although probably the European story is essential. But I'll look into it, thank you.

A little off topic but Chelsea Handler interviewed the actor portraying Einstein in the new National Geograpic series about his life. Looks like it could be interesting.

>5 DugsBooks: I've been enjoying the show. Small moment of pleasure: the show did portray the episode in 1906 when von Laue arrives at the Swiss Patent Office unbidden, to meet Einstein for the first time. A triumph, one of the earliest tokens of recognition by the scientific community.

In the meantime I've located several more books and articles on my topic, so I'm in good shape now.
