early on in their lives. Einstein’s favored authors of James C Maxwell and Aaron Bernstein would center his fascination in the world of physics. Gandhi was well versed in all the works of the major religions and gained influence from writers such as Leo Tolstoy and Henry Thoreau. Their innovations were not wholly original, as many aspects of relativity can be found in the works of Lorentz and Poincaré and many parts of satyagraha can be found in the teachings of Christ and Tolstoy amongst
