Currently Playing: Photoelectric Effect History: A Battle of Einstein vs. Lenard

Einstein won his Nobel Prize for the photoelectric effect, but why? He was more famous for relativity. It all has to do with a man named Philipp Lenard. Lenard's experiments inspired Einstein, and Lenard at first befriended Einstein but then turned and made his life a misery. This is a fascinating story of how a brilliant scientist can descend into madness.
