On November 25, 1915, Einstein presents his famous General Theory of Relativity. Just a few years later, his revolutionary ideas about space and time are confirmed during a solar eclipse. Overnight, Einstein became a scientific superstar. Einstein skillfully uses his popularity to give a war-torn world what it longs for: his genius, his humanitarian ideals, his unconventional appearance, his civil courage. Einstein's judgment was soon in demand far beyond the field of physics.
