ALBERT EINSTEIN ,University Press

-About this book

He was the preeminent physicist of the 20th century. His name ranks among the likes of Galileo and Sir Isaac Newton on the list of history’s greatest scientists. Albert Einstein changed the way we look at the universe, and without his contributions to physics, many of the emerging theories and technologies of today might not even be possible.

Yet, Albert Einstein was also a human, just like the rest of us. He had aspirations, disappointments, joys, and struggles.

Many people who speak of Einstein’s genius do not know that he had a family life, too, with wives and children, that he had interests outside of science, or that he was a world traveler.

Certainly, Einstein knew the thrill of scientific discovery. But, he also knew the joy of discovering new cultures and meeting new people. Einstein was not a completely cold-hearted logician. He was as passionate about making the world a better place as he was about his work.

He appreciated his freedom and spoke out for the rights of others to have the same. He did value his solitude and had trouble getting along with other people.

But, during the time he lived, he fell in love, had heartaches and regrets, and worked tirelessly to achieve the life of peace and comfort that he deeply longed for.
