A lively, accessible reference to the life and work of Albert Einstein, from absentmindedness to Zionism. Each of the more than 100 entries will offer a readable account of some aspect of Einstein's world, be it a description of his brain or of his friendship with fellow physicist Niels Bohr. This reference work on Time’s Man of the Century will make his life and works, and cultural influence, clear and accessible to both students and casual fans of this titan of science. Entries range from the reasonably scientific (theory of relativity) to the odd and engaging (brain, jokes, movies).
'Einstein A To Z' is published to coincide with the centennial of the theory of relativity, and the 50-year anniversary of Einstein's death.
