Einstein: His Life and Universe

"Einstein: His Life and Universe" is the biography of scientist Albert Einstein written by Walter Isaacson (who also authored Steve Jobs biography). Generally one would expect that a lot of focus would be on Einstein's scientific career but Isaacson devotes far more to Einstein's personal and political life.

I started this before before I embarked on a long travel and struggled to complete it during the travel but the journey (both the travel and the book) was worth it. Einstein's political beliefs highlighted in this book make you wish he was alive during these times.
