Book Review: illuminating insight into the man behind Relativity Summary: 5 Stars
Escaping from the confines of pure science, gIdeas and Opinionsh provides illuminating insight into the philosophy, politics and humanity of the man behind Relativity. Broaching such diverse topics as religion, science, human rights, economics and peace, Einstein reveals his disdain for the current direction of society and his advocacy of community solidarity. gIdeas and Opinionsh remains a fitting testimonial to one of the greatest and eclectic minds of the modern era.
Book Review: thought provoking Summary: 5 Stars
It really suprises me that we were'nt given a chance in highschool to read directly this brilliant man's work. What astounds me most is Einstein's self-chosen, highly principled, ethical force of being-- besides being a revolutionary scientist. All that-- and he was far from self-righteous. Reminds me in parts of Jiddu Krishnamurti's pondering as well.
Book Review: wonderful reading Summary: 4 Stars
All my life I have heard wonderful things about the brilliance of Einstein. I had been told he was brilliant but complex and hard to understand - they were wrong. I am sure that trying to understand his equations would make the mind spin, but he wrote far more then just equations.
The writings here give real insight into the man - these are documents written by him for newspapers, interviews, and such. These show the man Einstein and his personal views from politics (and war) to his ideas of god. Its wonderful reading for anyone who wants to know more about him as a man beyond e=mc2.
