Imagination Vs Imagination Essay

INTRODUCTION “Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand” (Albert Einstein). Albert Einstein’s claim could be broken down into two segments; one is defining the term knowledge as being “limited to all we know” and the second defines imagination as “embracing the entire world.” His words are not meant to attack any other scientist out there, all he meant was that imagination initiates our curiosity which leads us to conduct studies that eventually reveal information that we know as knowledge. Come to think of it, all great breakthroughs in history came from these ‘Eureka’ moments instead of solely reason of logic.

One of Einstein’s secrets to success was that he was able to think outside of the box due to his learning’s in philosophy. Einstein’s influence on the philosophy of science is intertwined with his impacts on theoretical physics. Which once seemed to be two opposite disciplines during the 20th Century, were now working together to help each other evolve. Philosophers of science gave structural insights to

He explained that if a bucket of water is hung by a twisted cord and then released, the bucket will spin in relation to the water and the observer. As the bucket keeps spinning, the water’s surface becomes concave but the concavity of the water shows rotation that is relatively at rest to the pail. Meaning; absolute space remain similar will always in relation to anything external. Sir Isaac Newton’s absolute space and absolute time claim were accepted at the time; however, as time evolved, theories have too. The seventeenth-century ideas of Newton differed with the twentieth century views of Einstein on time and space.
