Just thought I would mention it.
I noticed previous that somebody made a reference to Hilbert as the discoverer of the final theory, when in this source it is found otherwise. http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/spacetime-holearg/ "For a long time it was thought that Hilbert had beaten Einstein by 5 days to the final theory. New evidence in the form of the proof pages of Hilbert's paper now suggests he may not have. More important, it shows clearly that Hilbert, like Einstein, at least temporarily believed that the hole argument precluded all generally covariant theories and that the belief survived at least as far as the proof pages of his paper. (See Corry, Renn and Stachel 1997.)" Sol |
