What made him a genius? Isaacson’s biography shows how Einstein’s scientific imagination sprang from the rebellious nature of his personality. His fascinating story is a testament to the connection between creativity and freedom. Isaacson explores how an imaginative, impertinent patent clerk – a struggling father in a difficult marriage who couldn't get a teaching job or a doctorate – became the locksmith of the mysteries of the atom, and the universe. His success came from questioning conventional wisdom and marvelling at mysteries that struck others as mundane. This led him to embrace a morality and politics based on respect for free minds, free spirits and free individuals.

Unfortunately, upon receiving it, I noticed that the pages were poorly cut, almost as if the machine had missed trimming one side. It was truly unacceptable. If my father hadn't started reading it, I would have promptly returned the book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Isaacson's meticulous research and engaging storytelling. *by on Reviewed in the United States 8 July 2023* Walter Isaacson takes readers through the extraordinary life of the renowned physicist Albert Einstein.
