The Ultimate Einstein with CD

FROM THE PUBLISHER

Albert Einstein revolutionized our understanding of light, time and space. He firmly believed that the universe was ultimately ordered and not chaotic, and spent most of his life trying to prove it. Eintstein's genius, coupled with his compassionate nature and good humor, made him a beloved figure in an age of constant upheaval.

The Ultimate Einstein explores the life and work of the twentieth century's greatest mind. It contains a new, insightful biography of Albert Einstein's life, written by Dr. Donald Goldsmith, co-writer of the critically acclaimed companion book to the PBS series, The Astronomers, and The Hunt for Life on Mars. There is also a timeline tour through the decades highlighting Einstein's contributions to science and important personal events in his life, and a fascinating plain-language exploration of Einstein's famous "thought experiments," which explain how this extraordinary thinker visualized complex concepts.
