              Fascinating biography of one of the most brilliant scientific minds and complex personalities of modern times by Walter Isaacson, author of the recent best-selling bio of Apple founder Steve Jobs.

              One of Einstein's greatest fears was of those that would use fear to trample civil liberties. Hmm. That sounds familiar.

              I cant imagine Einstein as Israel's 1st President, and, apparently neither could he, which is why he declined the offer

              Not only did Albert have a complicated love life, but getting his Nobel Prize was no walk in the park, either. Anti-semitism was epidemic in Europe, really.

                Michael Busby And, his wife, Else, dealt with his philandering. I had no idea. I'm not sure what the term, "affair," meant in his day and age. His life in Berlin, post-Nobel Prize, was one woman after another. They would arrive and visit. A.E. would take them to the opera, or on walks, or for tea. I'm not sure physical lines were crossed, but certainly emotional lines were.

                Michael Busby @DelightfulDame its really engrossing; im 400 pgs in and have a difficult time walking away from it. If you like science and investigating motivating forces behind people and ideas, this is a good book. Written by the same author who wrote Jobs bio, which I finished prior

              Great book, I highly recommend it.

              I had no idea Einstein was such a victim to his emotions and women and love. His passions were apparently theoretical physicists, women, and music-in that order.

              Amazing how long it took Einstein to obtain a professorship even after publication of many papers

              Loving this audiobook. It's actually getting me to clean instead of just looking at how messy the house is

              Albert Einstein led a fascinating life, who knew?
