"The decision to publish only under his name seems to have been taken
jointly. Why? Radmila Milentijević, a former history professor at City
College in New York, published in 2015 Mileva’s most comprehensive
biography. She suggests that Mileva probably wanted to help Albert make
a name for himself, such that he could find a job and marry her. Dord
Krstić, a former physics professor at Ljubljana University, spent 50
years researching Mileva’s life. In his well-documented book, he
suggests that given the prevalent bias against women at the time, a
publication co-signed with a woman might have carried less weight."
