Albert Einstein was born on March 14, 1879, in Ulm, Germany, with a swollen, misshapen head and a grossly overweight body, causing his grandmother, Jette Koch, to wail, "Much too fat!"

Acclaim for Einstein: A Life
"Denis Brian's convincing picture . . . only makes our wonder grow at Einstein's sublime achievements." --The Washington Post "Does much to reveal the man behind the image . . . Brian's intimate work proves that in literature, as in science, taking a careful look can be a rewarding endeavor." --Detroit Free Press. "A fascinating, vastly enjoyable, deeply researched and fair account of Einstein the man." --Physics World "Exhaustively researched, almost obsessively detailed, written with unobtrusive informality, the book is exemplary as a record of Einstein's personal and professional life." --The Spectator (U.K.) "An utterly fascinating life of a great scientist full of new insights and very readable." --Ashley Montagu "A fascinating read with more interesting material about Einstein as a human being than I have ever seen before . . . Once I started it, I couldn't put it down." --Robert Jastrow astrophysicist and bestselling author "A thoughtful and captivating account of one whom I had the joy of knowing and loving." --George Wald Nobel LaureateDetails
