How Close Was Einstein to the Unified Field Theory? - Quora
Given that we’ve had 60 years to build on what he accomplished, I’d say “not very”. If he’d been close, somebody else would have finished it by now. There wa...

Why didn’t Einstein succeed in unifying gravity and electromagnetism?
Electromagnetism (E&M) is considered a force because charges and currents (moving charges) are the sources of the electric and magnetic fields.
