Abstract

If it was good enough for Einstein... To coincide with the centenary of Albert Einstein's ‘Miraculous Year’ — when he wrote articles that form the basis of the theories of relativity, quantum mechanics and brownian motion — 2005 has been declared World Year of Physics. Around the world physics as a university subject is in decline, despite its vital role in the development of the science and technology that underpins the modern world. Physicists, as outlined on http://www.wyp2005.org , plan to raise the political profile of physics as a subject, with the public and especially politicians. Nature's first contribution to the year is a profile of some of the rising generation of physicists.
