The book presents more than five hundred quotes and aphorisms of the greatest scientist of the twentieth century, the brilliant physicist Albert Einstein. The collection opens with a preface by the creator of quantum electrodynamics, Freeman Dyson, and includes sections on the chronology of Einstein's life, answers to frequently asked questions about him, and the family tree of his family. Aphorisms and quotes from extensive correspondence introduce us to Einstein, a thinker and a gifted writer, a controversial person and very far from the replicated image of an upstaged genius-eccentric.
