5.0 out of 5 stars The Man Behind the Science, 22 Jun 2004
There are tons of books out there on the Great Physicist but this is certainly one of the best introductons to Einstein I've read. It's definitely a biography rather than a relativity primer (although the important science is there too), but it's packed with quotes from Einstein's letters whichreally bring him alive and show what a great character he was. A really facsinating read and nice photos too.
