Only as it applied to pattents he was assigned to.

Einstein's SRT paper was only
reviewed very briefly by Max Planck (the theoretical adviser to
Annalen in 1905), who should have insisted on citations.

Where did you find this information? I'd like to request the reference
to this if you please.

Sorry but I don't have access to that book and I can't go to Cambridge
MA to look it up in the Library they have there since I do not read
every referenced source. I was hoping for a quote and an explanation.
For example, you neglected to respond to my inquiry, i.e.

Huh? Where did you get an idea like this? e^x is not a polynomial
(although it has an infinite expansion in terms of powers of x) and
yet one can integrate this exactly, just like many other functions.

This was asked in response to your claim "Calculus is only exact in
derivatives of the
polynomials not real world problems."

Any Calculus textbook will give numerous examples otherwise.
