>>How many radical ideas did Einstein have, and does that come out of the overall total?<<

For a while he had tons. Until Einstein came along Newtonian physics ruled. But the equations never quite fit and scientiests just sort of fudged the results.

Einstein came along and said: "you can't do that" (in so many words-lol). And when he added time to the equations they worked perfectly.

But Einstein didn't do much his last 30 years. He never fully accpetd quantum physics and kept looking for a unified field theory that combined relativity and quantum physics.
