Incredible book for anyone with a curious mind. Mr. Bodanis does a masterful job of laying out the history of Physics. This book is NOT about Einstein, per se, but rather his formula and all the physics that preceded it and contributed to Einstein’s theories. This book captivated me, I couldn’t put it down. It’s NOT a boring science book, at all. Quite the contrary, You learn about the private lives of some of the world’s most famous contributors to Physics and that human side makes the book much more complete and interesting.
