Description
"Abraham Pais, a distinguished physicist who knew Einstein both professionally and personally in the last years of his life, presents the definitive scientific biography of the towering figure of twentieth-century science. Combining a profound understanding of Einstein's work with personal recollections from their years of acquaintance, Subtle is the Lord illuminates the man through the development of his scientific thought: his theories of relativity, his work on Brownian motion, and his response to quantum theory."--Jacket.
