Albert Einstein's image is everywhere, adorning
posters in college dorms, advertisements on the Web,
T-shirts and coffee mugs. Time magazine pointed him
Person of the Century, and just about anyone can cite
his most famous equation. For all this brand recognition,
though, it's safe to say that comparatively few people
know what Einstein's theories of relativity actually
describe. In Einstein's Cosmos: How Albert Einstein's
Vision Transformed Our Understanding of Space and
Time (Norton, $23), City University of New York, physicist
and accomplished science writer Michio Kaku skims
through the biographical and anecdotal details of the
great scientist's life - topics exhaustively covered in
Einstein's numerous biographies - and focuses instead
on how he thought.
More specifically, Kaku explores the visual metaphors
Einstein used while devising the special and general
theories of relativity. In doing so, Kaku enables the
reader to see and think as Einstein did, leading us to
a simpler, more complete understanding of several of
the most important scientific ideas of our time.
