According to Einstein's theory, your position in a gravitational field changes the rate at which you experience time passing.

In fact, at the time of Maxwell's death, his theory of electromagnetic fields was not yet widely accepted or even well known; experts still argued about whether electricity and magnetism propagated their effects via «action at a distance,» as gravity (supposedly) did, or by Michael Faraday's «lines of force» (incorporated by Maxwell into his fields).

That's how you can start with relativity and arrive at quantum field theory.

Few followed his lead, and his many published attempts at a unified field theory proved to be frustrating dead ends.
