Biographic: Einstein

Brian Clegg

A fascinating portrait of Albert Einstein in 50 defining facts, from the essential to the trivial, illustrated through 150 stunning infographics.

Many people know that Albert Einstein (1879-1955) was the creator of the theory of relativity that revolutionized modern science. What, perhaps, they don't know is that he did not learn to speak until he was 4 years old; that he was asked to become the President of Israel in 1952, but refused; that he was under surveillance by the FBI for 22 years; and that after urging the development of the atomic bomb, he later became a proponent of nuclear disarmament. Biographic: Einstein presents an array of irresistible facts and figures converted into infographics to reveal the scientist behind the science.
