20. Prominent physicists of the time had already developed similar theories, bolstered by remarkably
good experimental evidence, that were mathematically consistent and equivalent to Einstein's exposition of relativity theory. All they lacked was the clear statement of a fundamental principle to start the chain of thinking that resulted in a clear picture of relativity theory and its consequences. In Understanding Relativity, by Stanley Boston Birkhauser, the author points out, "There was not complete satisfaction with the theory that Lorentz and produced in 1904, although that theory was formally identical to the theory that Einstein introduced a year later" (page 324).
