Más información sobre el libro

"Although Einstein is celebrated as one of the most gifted scientific minds of the twentieth century for his tremendous contributions to our understanding of the world around us, little is known about the private life behind his legendary persona. How did Einstein spend his life when not engaged in scientific pursuits? What were his interests? What in Einstein's background and everyday life inspired his development as a scientist and as a person? In this unique contribution to the Einstein literature, Barry Parker draws on the great scientist's letters and personal papers to explore the intellectual and emotional drives that motivated both his work and his life."--Jacket.
