EINSTEIN IN PERSON
A Genius and his World
Author: Gunda Borgeest
Contents (excerpt): Most people consider Einstein more than an important scientist. He became an icon a long time ago. He is the genius per se, and very popular even though most of us do not comprehend his theories. [...] This lushly illustrated book shows the many facettes of his personality - the private person, the scientist and the political activist and cosmopolitan. Once and foremost it shows rare photos of the physicist and composes them to one picture: the first scientist who became a pop star and the individualist who reached his limits when encountering other people, especially women.
