He worked on a unified field theory from "summary" of Albert Einstein by Walter Isaacson
In the later years of his life, Albert Einstein became consumed with the pursuit of a unified field theory. This theory aimed to merge the forces of electromagnetism and gravity into a single framework, providing a comprehensive explanation of the universe. Einstein was driven by a deep-seated belief that there must be a more elegant and harmonious way to understand the fundamental laws of nature. His quest for a unified field theory was motivated by a desire for simplicity and unity in the face of the complexities of existing physical theories. He sought to uncover the underlying structure that would tie together the disparate threads of the physical world, revealing a deeper order that governed all phenomena. Einstein approached the probl...
