His scientific theories revolutionized the way we look at reality. His legacy of pacifism, Zionism \u0026amp; social justice continues to inspire millions around the world. The Einstein Scrapbook offers a unique glimpse into the life \u0026amp; work of this remarkable man which will delight those for whom he is a hero \u0026amp; those familiar with him only as an icon. Featuring illuminating documents \u0026amp; photographs from his personal papers--many published here for the first time--it provides a kaleidoscope through which to see the great scientist \u0026amp; humanist anew. The book opens with a concise biography exploring Einstein's family history \u0026amp; education, his career as a scientist \u0026amp; educator, his marital relations \u0026amp; his paternal role. Subsequent sections present an overview of his scientific theories, from his breakthrough articles on the special theory of relativity, quantum theory \u0026amp; Brownian motion published in 1905--his annus mirabilis--thru his general theory of relativity in 1916 \u0026amp; his final quest for a unified field theory. The book also shows his role in the international peace movement \u0026amp; his views on social \u0026amp; economic justice, as well as his Jewish identity \u0026amp; his relationship to the Jewish people \u0026amp; Israel, culminating in his being offered the presidency of Israel in 1952. On the lighter side, this book chronicles his passion for music \u0026amp; sailing, his charming correspondence with children from around the world \u0026amp; some of the curious letters he received from fans during later years. It concludes with a look at his mythic status. Drawn from the collection of the Hebrew University's Albert Einstein Archives, The Scrapbook reflects his brilliance, humor, generosity \u0026amp; nobility.","brand":"bookshop.lol","offers":[{"title":"Thryft - Used (Like New)","offer_id":42502992265294,"sku":"9780801872037","price":8.9,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Thryft - Used (Very Good)","offer_id":42502992298062,"sku":"9780801872037","price":6.9,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Thryft - Used (Good)","offer_id":42502992330830,"sku":"9780801872037","price":5.9,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Thryft - Used (Well Read)","offer_id":42502992363598,"sku":"9780801872037","price":5.9,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0645\/3857\/4926\/files\/1379049_5aaf5dc4-bef8-47c6-9b83-37344c3519a2.jpg?v=1747357919","url":"https:\/\/bookshop.lol\/products\/the-einstein-scrapbook-1","provider":"bookshop.lol","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
