Theory of Relativity in the Ottoman Empire: A rare book on the theory of relativity was written by one of the first Ottoman electrical engineers Mehmed Refik and contains various experiments, which should be tested in order to confirm Einstein's theory, published in the final form in 1916. - Mehmed Refik Fenmen (1182-1951) was born in a well-educated family. His maternal grandfather was an influential statesman during the Tanzimat period Midhat Pasha (1822-1883), and his father Vefik was a governor of Aleppo. After finishing the French lycée in Istanbul Mehmed Refik moved to Lausanne, where he graduated from mathematics and physics at the University of Lausanne, and after that to Liège, where he specialized in electricity at the Montefiore Institute. After his return to Istanbul Mehmed Refik became a lecturer of mathematics and physics at the Darülfünun (University). In 1912, he authored a schoolbook on electricity Fenn-i Elektrik ve Tatbikat-i Sinaiyesi (The Science of Electric and Its Industrial Application) and later founded a popular science magazine Fen Alemi (World of Science).
