Einstein needed Regge Poles and Bootstraps.

Regge poles and Bootstraps were two dominating issues in the early 1960s. Since I received my PhD degree in 1961, I had to learn these subjects. Einstein was not needed. I thought I was doing bootstraps, but I was never regarded as a "licensed by my fellow "bootstrapper." Yet, I am very happy to talk about the lasting impact made by this chapter of physics dominated by these two words, or more precisely by Geoffrey Chew.


Why is he with Einstein?
