         Music also helped him to
         think more clearly when                    Albert loved
                                                    his violin so
         working out his theories.                  much that he

                                                      it “Lina.”
         continued to develop was his
         unified field theory (UFT).

         He wanted it not only to tie
         together all the major laws of physics in one

         neat concept, but also to alter the very basis
         of quantum mechanics. Albert would never

         complete his work on his famous “Theory of
         Everything,” and it remains unresolved.

             Albert also continued his support of Jews
         worldwide. He helped to raise money for Jewish

         causes, such as the establishment of a Jewish
         homeland. The number of Jewish deaths caused

         by Nazi persecution could not be calculated at
         the time, but today it is estimated to be

         somewhere in the neighborhood of six million.
         After World War II, many Jewish people who

         were fortunate enough to escape Nazi influence
         had scattered to various parts of the globe.
