Einstein fascinates because he seemed to be able to outthink nature itself. Although much has already been published about the great one, there’s yet another Einstein biography out, this one called “Einstein: His Life and Universe” by Walter Isaacson. And as is wont to happen, reviews follow…
John Updike adequately reviews the new Isaacson book in a piece in The New Yorker. He hits on some of the propelling forces and creative dystopias that pushed Einstein to the outer limits - things like a wondering mind and a wandering eye.
