Item Details
Description
"Albert Einstein, the Human Side: New Glimpses from His Archives", Selected and Edited by Helen Dukas and Banesh Hoffman, published by Princeton University Press, 1979. First Edition.

Price un-clipped original dust jacket [a little spine fade]; hard boards, original maroon-brown cloth, black facsimile of Einstein’s signature on the front board, gold lettering on spine; 5.1/4” x 8.1/4”; 168 pages, near fine condition.

"[This book] presents itself in such a modest and loving tone that it is fitting for the memory of the man it lets us hear. It is a fresh and delicious little anthology of citations from the body of Einstein's letters, journal entries and other written comment.... These varied, penetrating, warm and open remarks to queens and schoolchildren, friends and antagonists, philosophers and sophomores have been sensitively chosen by two old friends of Einstein's and well translated. The German originals are included." [Scientific American]

"[This book] compiled by two of his closest colleagues in later life, Helen Dukas and Banesh Hoffmann, aims to show what kind of a person Einstein was. By a series of quotations from letters, jottings and unpublished documents, for example, Dukas and Hoffmann demonstrate as clearly as anybody could expect that Einstein was a courteous, kindly, witty, fearless and lonely man.... It is a bedside book." [Washington Post Book World]
