Más información sobre el libro

A shocking portrait of the greatest genius of this century. So intensely guarded & obscured were the details of Einstein's personal life that it took the authors six months to gain permission to quote from Einstein's correspondence. Even then many letters could only be paraphrased. The book reveals that the Nobel Prize-winner whose genius & work for peace have long been associated with a kind of personal nobility had an adulterous, egomaniacal & misogynist side with which very few people are familiar. "A deeply melancholic & moving tale that forces its readers to grapple with the enigma of the Einstein myth."-- The Economist
