134 RELATIVITY, THE SPECIAL THEORY


one, La Science et I'Hypothese, for the following comment: '[This] book pro-
foundly impressed us and kept us breathless for weeks on end' [E15]!
I must say more about Einstein and Poincare and shall do so in Chapter 8 after
having discussed Einstein's creation of special relativity in the next chapter.
