Overview

In Einstein, writer Jim Ottaviani and artist Jerel Dye take us behind the veneer of Einstein's celebrity, painting a complex and intimate portrait of the world's most well-known scientist.

When you think of Albert Einstein, who do you see?

We can all picture his frazzled hair and bushy mustache, but how many of us know about the man behind the image? Born in 1879, Einstein only ever had one word on his mind while he was growing up: "why?" It's a question that would haunt him throughout his challenging years at school and into adulthood as he pushed against the boundaries set before him by his parents, romantic partners, peers, and the world at large. But the questioning that brought him so much trouble in life would also bring him great success in redefining how we saw the universe. Einstein's general theory of relativity changed our understanding of time and space. Its principles helped us discover black holes and nuclear fission. And its publication cemented Einstein's place in history.
