Albert Einstein, the human side :
Einstein, Albert, 1879-1955,
Albert Einstein, the human side : glimpses from his archives / [Albert Einstein] ; selected and edited by Helen Dukas and Banesh Hoffmann ; with a new foreword by Ze'ev Rosenkranz. - New edition. - Princeton, Oxford Princeton University Press 2013 - xv, 167 pages : 22 cm.
Modesty, humor, compassion, and wisdom are the traits most evident in this illuminating selection of personal papers from the Albert Einstein Archives. The illustrious physicist wrote as thoughtfully to an Ohio fifth-grader, distressed by her discovery that scientists classify humans as animals, as to a Colorado banker who asked whether Einstein believed in a personal God. Witty rhymes, an exchange with Queen Elizabeth of Belgium about fine music, and expressions of his devotion to Zionism are but some of the highlights found in this warm and enriching book.
