| Publisher Description: Thanks to his monumental accomplishments, Albert Einstein's name is synonymous with genius. With his famous E=MC and insights into quantum physics, this legendary scientist not only revolutionized the way we understand the universe, but paved the way for such diverse technology as lasers, cell phones, electron microscopes, DVD players, atomic weaponry, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Featuring kid-friendly explanations of the scientific principles, this compelling biography follows Einstein from his childhood through his early career struggles, and on to the theoretical breakthroughs and groundbreaking writings that won him the Nobel Prize. Equally important, we get a complete portrait of the man, who--deeply affected by the Holocaust--dedicated his life to pacifism and equal rights for all. |
