Book Introduction

An acclaimed science writer's insightful and revelatory biography of young Einstein--teenager in love, draft dodger, bohemian, poet, and scientist--drawing upon many unpublished letters and years of research

During the first two decades of the twentieth century, the world stood on the verge of upheaval as all the familiar political, cultural, and scientific truths were challenged by new discoveries and philosophies. It was a period when young Albert Einstein was in love--with physics and the secret order of the universe; with his brilliant, tormented first wife, Mileva; and with a series of comely young women who were distractions from his gradually failing marriage. While that marriage worked, though, the Einsteins were a truly modern couple, a couple who had relativity and quantum mysticism as their pillow talk, a couple who were as often colleagues as they were fierce adversaries.

In Einstein in Love, Dennis Overbye presents this greatest of scientific romances in a vivid new light, telling the unforgettable story of the young man--a sly firebrand who left personal and professional chaos in his wake--who did the revolutionary work that changed the very way we view reality.

Einstein in Love separates the man Albert from the myth Einstein and restores humanity, individuality, and nuance to the most monolithic figure in the scientific pantheon.
