Back Cover Although countless volumes have been written about Albert Einsteins contributions to the scientific world, few works depict such a comprehensive and personal portrait of the man behind the legend.

In the first part of the book, Einstein focuses on aspects of human existence beyond the scope of the purely scientific world, demonstrating a keen awareness of the importance of the moral and intellectual aspects of human nature-from equality and freedom to personal relationships and spiritual development.

Subjects range from his theory of relativity, gravitation, and the space-time continuum to religion, human rights, economics, government, and nuclear war. Einsteins stature as one of the most creative and progressive thinkers of the twentieth century is clearly demonstrated by his remarkable ability to penetrate directly to the heart of a subject, whether scientific or secular.
