Fakta

The New York Times bestselling author of Einstein’s Dreams presents a collection of essays, written over the past twenty years, that displays his genius for bringing literary and scientific concerns into ringing harmony. Sometimes provocative, sometimes fanciful, always elegantly conceived and written, these meditations offer listeners a fascinating look into the creative compulsions shared by the scientist and the artist.
