What I did like about this book, is that while covering Einstein's life and work, it also gave an overview of 20th century history! It's amazing how Eintsein's life and work were so intertwined with the major events of that century. (PS. I still don't understand the theory of relativity!) ”

I wanted to like Einstein and I've a Chemistry degree and I found the book a hard read. I'm not altogether sure what most non-scientists would think about the science involved, and nearly everyone might think he was a nightmare to his first wife and kids.
If you can cope with the sensation that your ideals about a hero have been shattered, read this book. If you can't done.”
