"Walter Isaacson has captured the complete Einstein. With an effortless style that belies a sharp attention to detail and scientific accuracy, Isaacson takes us on a soaring journey through the life, mind, and science of the man who changed our view of the universe." -- Brian Greene, Professor of Physics at Columbia and author of The Fabric of the Cosmos
"This book does an amazing job getting the science right and the man revealed." -- Sylvester James Gates, Professor of Physics at the University of Maryland
"This book will be widely and deservedly admired. It is excellently readable and combines the personal and the scientific aspects of Einstein's life in a graceful way." -- Gerald Holton, Professor of Physics at Harvard and author of Einstein, History, and Other Passions
"Once again Walter Isaacson has produced a most valuable biography of a great man about whom much has already been written. It helps that he has had access to important new material. He met the challenge of dealing with his subject as a human being and describing profound ideas in physics. His biography is a pleasure to read and makes the great physicist come alive." -- Murray Gell-Mann, winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics and author of The Quark and the Jaguar

What would the world be like if Albert Einstein had never existed? Would the atomic bomb have been made in time to influence the outcome of World War II? Would Israel and those of the Jewish faith be where they are today?
Only a few individuals make a profound impact on this world. Some do this by deeds, some by might, some by brilliance, and some by force of personality. Albert Einstein did so by the last of these two. Walter Isaacson portrays his distinctive character and gives insight into the nature and the significance of his scientific discoveries in a well-written story of this legendary man.
This most recent biography of the famous scientist adds to the body of knowledge, drawing new information from numerous private papers that were released last year. From these in particular, we gain more insight into Einstein's relationships. Friendly and benevolent to friends, he could be aloof and unsympathetic to family. His two marriages and his children—one born out of wedlock, another who became schizophrenic, and a third who became an engineer—all suffered from lack of attention.
As a child, Einstein was slow to talk and was labeled “the dopey one” by the family maid. Several family members considered him to be “almost backwards.” He
