This book is a collection of random facts about one of the greatest genius of all times- Albert Einstein. From the day he was born, through his childhood, manhood, his work, wisdom, and legacy.

It is one of those light reading that you can finish within 30 minutes....and almost regret that you even spent that much time reading this book.

I didn't like how the book is written, considering it is a biography of a genius whose story deserves to be told as the greatest thing ever. It felt like the book is written by not so experienced writer, an ordinary person who one day sat down, googled Einstein and put in a book summary of each article he came across in barely two sentences. Here's just an example of the writing inside:

Albert Einstein was never good to either of his wives. He was a braggart and boastful when it came to his conquests and he did not care who in his family knew about the other women.

Albert Einstein preferred being isolated from others rather than having to deal with other customs, opinions, and the prejudice of others.

Einstein was always forward thinking, and he was not afraid to think of what would happen after his death.

ETC...

I guess these random facts are not too bad but the writing style of this author is atrocious- if this can be called writing style. I also need to mention that each of these sentences is divided by ornamental symbol. It looked stupid enough on my phone, I can't even imagine how stupid printed pages look like.

I didn't read a lot of biographies because I don't have a tendency to do so but I felt really bad that they couldn't involve a better effort to tell Einstein's story. I mean, there are probably some good books that focus on him and his work (I didn't read any before though) but this is a really poor way of extorting money from the readers and followers of Einstain's work.

Amazon's The History Hour who suppose to tell the stories about great people and historical events.

I don't recommend this book because you're not going to learn a great deal about Einstein and his life as you are probably expecting. I can't even say I would recommend this to the youngsters because it's really poorly written and one can't learn much about the greatest genius of all time.
