Unexpected Einstein The Real Man behind the Icon

Advance Praise for The Unexpected Einstein"Einstein, the scientist who rejected all mythology, has himself become something of a mythological character-a god of the universe. Einstein would have approved of Denis Brian's demystification of the real genius who used facts to demolish myths. The real Einstein, with his complex views regarding God, politics, and life, is far more interesting and human than the mythological caricature." -Alan DershowitzCritical acclaim for Denis Brian's Einstein: A Life"Denis Brian's convincing picture . . . only makes our wonder grow at Einstein's sublime achievements." -The Washington Post"A fascinating, vastly enjoyable, deeply researched, and fair account of Einstein the man." -Physics World"Exhaustively researched, almost obsessively detailed, written with unobtrusive informality, the book is exemplary as a record of Einstein's personal and professional life." -The Spectator (UK)"An utterly fascinating life of a great scientist full of new insights and very readable." -Ashley Montagu"A fascinating read with more interesting material about Einstein as a human being than I have ever seen before. . . . Once I started it, I couldn't put it down." -Robert Jastrow, astrophysicist and bestselling author"A thoughtful and captivating account of one whom I had the joy of knowing and loving." -George Wald, Nobel laureate"Brian's ambitious and well-researched work is a refreshing change from the recent glut of revisionist Einstein biographies. . . . Does a fine job of depicting the man, not the myth." -Library JournalBrian, Denis is the author of 'Unexpected Einstein The Real Man behind the Icon', published 2005 under ISBN 9780471718406 and ISBN 0471718408.
