His infamous paper - [1001.0785] On the Origin of Gravity and the Laws of Newton
For every scientist that think of 'On the Origin of Gravity and the Laws of Newton' as the work of a genius though, there are probably dozens of others who don't understand any of it. Personally, I fall somewhere in middle between those two camps.
But anyway, it's causing a lot of different people in high places to re-evaluate what they think they know about the fundamental laws we take for granted though.
Take a gander.
