Description
|
|
|
|
Just about everyone has heard of Einstein's Theory of Relativity. But how many know that he worked to develop hearing aids? Or that a student spotted a mistake in one of his papers? Or that Einstein's brain endured a bizarre odyssey after he died? He was even offered the presidency of Israel—twice—and humbly declined. Filled with such tidbits and anecdotes in 101 entries, this browsable book from a physicist and a technical writer takes a novel approach to the life and work of an iconic scientific and cultural figure.
