Publisher's Foreword
We
are
pleased
to
be
publishing
this
translation of Volume III of
The Collected
Papers
of
Albert
Einstein. While
every
effort
has
been made
to
ensure
the
scientific
accuracy
of
this
translation,
it
is
not
a
literary
translation and
is
not
intended for
use
without the
documentary
edition. The
documentary
edition
provides
the
extensive
editorial
commentary necessary
for
a
full
understanding
of the
source
documents.
Recent
advances in
desktop typesetting
are
responsible
for the enhanced
quality
of
the
typography
in this
and future translation
volumes.
We
are
grateful
to
Dr. Anna
Beck
and Professor
Don Howard for their efforts
and
dedication
to this
project.
All
translations
in this volume
were
prepared
by
Dr.
Beck in
consultation
with
Professor
Howard;
all
translations
in
the
documentary
edition
were
prepared separately
by
the editors of that
volume.
We
wish to
acknowledge gratefully
the
continuing grant
from the National
Science
Foundation
which has
made
this
publication
possible.
