Einstein was the twentieth century's most celebrated scientist - a man who developed the theory of relativity, revolutionised physics and became an iconic genius in the popular imagination. Essays range from the reasonably scientific including the theory of relativity, to the odd and engaging, such as Einstein's brain, his favourite jokes and films. Einstein A to Z provides a vibrant overview of the man and his achievements.

KAREN C. FOX has written for Science, New Scientist, Discovery Channel Online, ABCNEWS.com, and UPI. ARIES KECK is the health and science reporter for WHYY-FM, Philadelphia's public radio station.
