Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars a very readable book on Einstein.......2000-07-12

Einstein's theory, believe or not, high school algebra is suffice in this book. It also has interesting anecdotes on his life and philosophy. Einstein's grandson wrote a foreword for this book which is great. I recommend this book to anyone who is interested in Einstein's life, philosophy and theory.

5 out of 5 stars An excellent book on Albert Einstein.......2000-06-21

This book gives a very good outline of Einstein's life, accomplishments, philosophy and theory with anecdotes to keep readers' interest. It has the simplest mathematical derivation of Einstein's theory compared to what is available on the market. His most famous equation E=mc2 is derived in four simple steps using high school arithmetic. Einstein's grandson Bernard wrote a Forward that adds a personal touch to his biography. I recommend the book strongly.
