    Isaacson’s did an outstanding job. He took great pains to understand and clearly explain the science that surrounded Einstein’s life. I feel a better person after reading this book.
  • Delightful exploration of this brilliant scientist

    Walter Isaacson delivers an intimate, close-up journey into the genius of Albert Einstein. Along the way he offers insights into the worlds of physics, math, and quantum mechanics, which only gently nudges the reader against incomprehensibility. The book is also a grand tour of the brilliant minds who shaped physics in the early 20th century, such as Lorentz, Bohr, Schrödinger, and Heisenberg. Thoroughly delightful read.
  • Awesome!

    Perfect for those like me who knew little more than e=mc2 about Einstein. This book introduces the reader to the life and character of one of the greats minds. The layman's explanation of the science and good historical context reminds the reader of Einstein's brilliance.

    I really cannot understand Einstein's nationality.? Wether he was German, Jew, Swiss or American.? Or in this world with power of globalization, we don't need to have nation. We just be honest, pay tax, protect and enjoy to the place we live for one period of time.?

    Mr. Isaacson succeeds in showing all sides of Einstein: his genius, his philosophy, his politics, his flaws, his virtues. An amazingly well documented book. I love how the principles of Einstein's physics are explained to the layman. Hard concepts such as quantum mechanics and relativity without being obscured by advanced mathematics. Excellent book, highly recommended.
