Andrew Robinson has written more than twenty-five books including Einstein: A Hundred Years of Relativity, The Last Man Who Knew Everything, and Genius: A Very Short Introduction.
“Highly readable.” —Andrew Crumey, Wall Street Journal
“Deeply interesting”—Naomi Pasachoff, Metascience
“Robinson’s evocative account of a transitional phase in Einstein’s
life offers a valuable new perspective on this great scientist’s
personality.”—Martin Rees, Astronomer Royal and former president of
the Royal Society
“A well-researched and very readable book about a less well-known
period in Einstein’s life – his contact with England and
English scientists.”—Jocelyn Bell Burnell, Visiting Professor of
Astrophysics, University of Oxford
“I absolutely adore this book – it’s insightful and very
well-written. Einstein’s time in and relation to Britain from an
Anglophile perspective is a new and valuable contribution. Robinson
is also a very fine storyteller.”—Steven Gimbel, author
of Einstein: His Space and Times
“The very first study of its kind. It wears its thorough and
conscientious scholarship lightly on its sleeve—a splendidly
entertaining read.”—Ze’ev Rosenkranz, editor of The
Travel Diaries of Albert Einstein
“A compelling tale of Einstein’s reception in Britain. Robinson
casts in bold relief important insights into the nature and
character of British and German societies in the interwar
period.”—Robert Schulmann, Former head of the Einstein Papers
