Pais, Abraham
Einstein Lived Here
Oxford University Press 2009. Hardcover. Used Like New. Pais turns his attention to the great physicist's life outside of science with an informal almost kalaidoscopic portrait of Einstein -his personal life and his public persona "my mythical namesake who has made my life so burdensome" his scientific contributions and his thoughts on religion philosophy and politics on Israel and Zionism on the rise of Nazism and McCarthyism and on much more. Pais offers a candid look at Einstein's troubled personal life -his two failed marriages his first child Lieserl who was born out of wedlock and of whom all trace has vanished his estranged son Hans Albert also a scientist who felt his father had abandoned the family and his son Eduard who gradually descended into madness. Of course any book on Einstein must touch upon science and Pais includes several illuminating chapters one of which offers general readers an accessible explanation of relativity and another traces the long road to Einstein's Nobel Prize after being nominated almost every year from 1909 to 1920 he finally won in 1921 -not for relativity but for his work on the photoelectric effect. On the lighter side Pais includes samples from Einstein's "curiosity file" in which he kept crank letters marriage proposals hate mail one began "You are the prince of idiocy the count of imbecility the duke of cretinism the baron of morons" and the like. But the heart of the book is the final section where Pais traces Einstein's life as seen through the media. Here we not only meet Einstein the living legend -receiving the keys to New York City from flamboyant Mayor Jimmy Walker attending the Hollywood premier of City Lights with Charlie Chaplin -but also witness his extensive involvement in the issues of his day. Much of his commentary is amazingly prescient. In 1933 he said of "I cannot understand the passive response of the whole civilized world to this modern barbarism. Does the world not see that Hitler is aiming for war" Oxford University Press hardcover
