Three early articles on special relativity. "Einstein's 1908 paper with Jakob Laub on the electrodynamics of moving media was...a direct continuation of his 1905 work on the electrodynamics of moving bodies...It was in this context that Einstein was first confronted with the four-dimensional spacetime formalism developed by Minkowski. In their own work, Einstein and Laub avoided this formalism, the value of which Einstein only gradually learned to appreciate." ("Einstein’s Annalen Papers", WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim, 2005.) Boni 23 & Boni 26.
