Summary
"A world-changing equation and a wild head of hair are all most of us picture when we think of Albert Einstein, one of history's greatest minds. Despite being a household name in his lifetime and an icon in ours, who Einstein truly was remained a mystery even to some of his closest friends. This is the story of a scientist who made many mistakes and who, even when he wanted to be proven wrong, was often right in the end. It's the story of a humanist who struggled to connect with people. And it's the story of a reluctant revolutionary who paid a high price for living with a single dream. In "Einstein," Jim Ottaviani and Jerel Dye take us behind the veneer of celebrity, painting a complex and intimate portrait of the scientist whose name has become another word for genius." --, Dust jacket flap
