This was the first of his many travels abroad, usually to France. When he was twenty-three, Stevenson developed a severe respiratory illness and was sent to the French Riviera to recuperate. He was a young rebel he thought that his parents' religion was an abomination, and he soon became known as a bohemian, ranting about bourgeois hypocrisy. His family expected him to become a lighthouse engineer, a family profession, but Stevenson agreed, as a compromise, to study law instead. When at last Stevenson was able to attend school, he did extremely well and entered the university at sixteen. He was a sickly youth, and an only son, for whom his parents had high hopes.

There are even those who affirm that his contribution and value in the development of this theory was more decisive than that of Albert Einstein, who is considered the creator. Some scientists have highlighted Lorentz's role in the development of the theory of relativity.
