Publisher's Synopsis
There is no one in the whole world who has not heard the name of Einstein, not a cultured man who has no knowledge of his scientific theories, not a man of science who has not studied them, approved or criticized his genius was unanimous, his name was placed on the same plane as those of Descartes, Galileo or Newton But it took the tragic appearance of Nazism, the Second World War and all its consequences to suggest, behind the great figure of the scientist, another Einstein of an exemplary humanity: a supporter of understanding among peoples, convinced defender of Judaism, attentive observer of the world around him. In the first part of this book we find the very clear positions that the author has taken in the social, religious, political and economic field. In the second part of the work, Albert Einstein devotes a large part to the theory of relativity restricted and generalized; it is expressed in clear terms and accessible to everyone, as no other would have known how to do, especially in the chapters where the genesis of the system is described.
