D. grandfather Willy Kinberg
(photo in  his driver license) was a chemist. He married Edla Elisabeth (Lizzie) Charlotta Schenström (called Lizzie) and they got four childrens, one of them was my father.

Born in Sweden, He lived in Freiburg, in Prag as a director for Consea and later in Madeira where he was Consul for the Swedish government. (Zoom in his driver licence above)
Willy died 18/8 1958 in Uppsala. Lizzy, my grandmother, died 12/1 1970 in Uppsala.

Willy Peterson Kinberg wrote a very ambitious book in German called “Wie entstanden Weltall und Menschheit?” (1) published  in Freiburg 1906, the year after Albert Einstein published the theory of special relativity and 9 years before the publication of the  general relativity theory, see Einsteins field equation below.
The book was sold in 20.000 copies in a few month (according to C.A. Claus, the german-Swedish translator)

Willy decided to translate it to Swedish with the title “Världens och Människans Uppkomst“.

 

The English title could be “The Creation of the World and Human kind“.

I have the Swedish book that Willy gave to his parents with the signature “Tillägnat Föräldrarna av förf. Freiburg den 28/11 2008” (“Dedicated to the parents from the writer.”) the same year the book was published. This is of course a very special book not only because of its content but also because of the family story it holds.

I have all my life been intrested in the subject Creation.  When I got this book in my hands  I  decided to start the project “The creation 100 years later” and document the main part of it in (https://mygrandfather.wordpress.com/).

Now the latest update of the 100 years later pages are to be found   in www.kinberg.net/wordpress/willy/100_years_later/

As I am not so good in reading German with the  old font,  I  decided read the book in Swedish but to publish scanned pages of the German version here on this site in the top menu under The Book
