This beautifully designed book features a significant number of previously unreleased documents and photographs from the Albert Einstein Archives and links them together with short introductions to chapters about Einstein’s private life, his scientific achievements and his political activities. The new volume represents a substantially enlarged English edition of a title originally published as a version to supplement the permanent exhibition on Albert Einstein at the Jewish National and University Library. This book is based on a book entitled 'Albert Einstein -- derrière l’image', published by the Musée Historique de Berne in 2005.
Einstein's Personal Life; Einstein's Scientific Achievements; Einstein's Political Activities; Einstein's Jewish Identity; Einstein and the United States; Einstein at Leisure; Correspondence with Children; The Curiosity File; Einstein the Myth.
"This book has been developed with love, the photos are astonishing." -- Die Zeit. "Of all the books dedicated to the memory of Albert Einstein, this is surely one of the most beautiful". -- the weekly paper of the German Bundestag.
