Etymology

Einsteinian +‎ -ism

Noun

Einsteinianism (uncountable)

  1. The physics of Albert Einstein, including general relativity and concepts that go beyond classical Newtonian mechanics.
    • 1981, N. Rudakov, Fiction stranger than truth: in the metaphysical labyrinth of relativity
      In fact, the non-rational excrescences on the body of relativity are so conspicuous that one is inevitably led to the conclusion that Einsteinianism belongs more to the realm of the transcendental than to that of physics.
