Summary

In the aftermath of the First World War, Albert Einstein wrote about his hopes for the League of Nations, his feelings as a German citizen among the growing anti-Semitism and nationalism of his country, and his myriad opinions about the current affairs of his day. In addition to these political perspectives, The World as I See It reveals the idealistic, spiritual, and witty side of this great intellectual as he approaches topics including good and evil, religion and science, active pacifism, Christianity and Judaism, and minorities.

Including letters, speeches, articles, and essays written before 1935, this collection offers a complete portrait of Einstein as a humanitarian and as a human being trying to make sense of the world changing around him.

I guess I wanted more of a biography

I guess I wanted more of a biography and less about his politics, Germany, and the suffering of the Jewish people. Well, those are all things worthy of consideration I really wanted to hear more about how he developed as a person with his scientific views and ideas his works after his famous equation. Reading this book, makes one wonder how much more this man would’ve accomplished in a more peaceful world. And with today’s more modern technology, and the Internet.
