Collection of four lectures delivered by Einstein at Princeton for the Stafford Little Lectures in 1921. The majority of the lectures are an attempt to reconcile issues with his theory of relativity and defend it, as well as give a comprehensive overview of the physics and math involved in the theory in an accessible way.
