Though I liked the more personal side of these big, important theories.

But will probably have to read a few more times to digest more. Author books 52 followers. This is a curio of a book - basically a philosophy and physics discussion wrapped in the guise of a conversation with Einstein in the present or at least when the book was written. I picked it up due to Carriere's links with Bunuel, but there's little surrealism here other than speculation of the universe which some might argue is surrealism itself.

It's hard to know who it is aimed at: those with a background in physics will have little use - there is no 'story' as such - because for those adepts I imagine it would bring little new to the table or Carriere himself would need to be a groundbreaking physicist ; and those with no background in physics might find it a useful introduction but it is unlikely to propel further exploration I fall into this category - I found it interesting, but I know anything more complicated is beyond me.

Despite these reservations, I found it a light read which whilst it deals with 'heavy' topics does so in a way that makes them quickly understandable. I'm sure there are many other introductory books to physics on the market, but it's likely none of them personalise Einstein in a such a non-academic way. Worth seeking out by the curious.

Elsa Silva. I think this book is very curious for people who have an interest about physics and astronomy and would like to get elucidated. It is very understandable even if you're not familiarized with the terms, as is my case, and it raises your consciousness about some of the most relevant discoveries humanking has accomplished about the functioning of the jean claude gallotta biography of albert einstein, also explaining how past achievements were fundamental to get where we are today well, by the time the book was written, but it's almost today.

It has a surrealist touch, since in the plot Einstein has already died and his scenery is a kind of limbo where something is keeping him until he "finishes" his work when does it finish is not specified. The whole scene is actualy very misterious and you don't even get to know the characters profoundly. It is an easy and pleasant reading I would recommend to anyone who has a little interest in these matters and would like to learn something new.

Nikita Maria reclaiming my literacy. This was a summer reading book back when I was in high school. I did the petty thing and looked up on Amazon the page count for each book on the list, and intentionally picked the shortest books. The Powers That Be at high school probably took great care in constructing these summer reading lists, because the shortest books were usually the most boring and took me longer to read as a result.

Einstein is an example of one such book. I read it so long ago that my memories of it are scant, but I believe there was time travel, possibly involving a watch, and a young girl goes back in time to speak with Einstein in person. Einstein is portrayed as witty and knowledgeable, and his characterization and dialogue are the only strong points in this book.

My main complaint is lack of plot--the character travels back in time, talks to Einstein, and then somehow goes back to the present day. It's truly meant to be an educational read, and since it's translated from French, some of the writing comes across a bit strange If you're a Physics student who doesn't enjoy reading, but has to read something for school, pick this one up--it's short and it's right in your wheelhouse.

Eine junge Frau besucht Albert Einstein in seinem Arbeitszimmer. Das Buch selbst ansprechend geschrieben. Die Erleuchtung habe ich so nicht gefunden, aber immerhin eine Idee oder Vorstellung davon habe ich jetzt zumindest. Die Sachen selbst sind relativ einfach beschrieben, sprich man wird nicht mit Formeln und Berechnungen erschlagen. Einsteins Lebensgeschichte fand ich da spannender.

Durch die Kapitel ist es aber auch inhaltlich gut unterteilt. Meg Onthemove Reading. A fascinating gym for the mind, in that this is a wonderful mix of physics, philosophy, history, psychology and some interesting biography all in one. At times it's like a thought experiment and at others a deep dive into the nature of the more broadly espoused Einsteinian theories and their supercedants.

This is definitely going to be a book that I return to as in places it's so difficult to get your head around everything that's being said, and yet at other points it's deceptively simple and elegant. Thoroughly enjoyable.

A great read. The novel reads like a play, it would be interesting if it was incorporated into one or in a form of a movie. I was shocked but for some reasons I also find it a tad funny. Einstein on relativity Tapani Aulu. Andrew Roach. Less a novel than an exploration of physics and philosophy. A charming, quick read. Michele Harrod. A young woman enters a building, to be quickly welcomed by the receptionist much to the annoyance of the manner who are already in the waiting room.

This young lady though, enters an office, and meets with Mr Einstein, whom she is studying at University. He is dead - but it seems the world still needs information from him, so here he is ready to answer her questions, along with a few of his own that have arisen in the jean claude gallotta biography of albert einstein few decades.

You'd need to love Physics to love this book. I love physics, and Einstein, so it was an absolute pleasure. I saved a favorite line : "Even though, when studied as closely as we study ants, human beings have perfected some rudimentary techniques and some works of art which they alone admire, they are, compared to these putative oceans of knowledge that will always elude us, no more than a feeble, endangered, recent subspecies, surprisingly limited in terms of space and time and afflicted with an egocentricity so presumptuous that it only highlights their ignorance, conceit and weakness.

The thinking of this species - infinitesimal relative to the universe - is necessarily restricted to itself. I read most of this book during the recent eclipse and that may add to my liking of it.
