A Tour de Force.

There are only two books that I enjoyed more than this one: The Elegant Universe and A Brief History of Time. It is perhaps unfair to make these comparisons because The Bible According to Einstein is so different. It borders on a work of art. It is highly original and extremely clever. If you want science delivered on a tasty platter, read this book.

A Super Science Book.

I bought this book about a year ago and it has taken me much of the year to read. This is by far the most interesting science book that I have ever seen. For a non-scientist like myself, it is an extremely interesting approach to explaining physics, chemistry, biology, geology, evolution and astronomy. The interesting thing is that one is, most of the time, reading a story about the universe or the history of earth or life and that one doesn't even realize that one is learning science. The Bible According to Einstein is a great book.

A wonderful book.

I learned so much from The Bible According to Einstein. It is the best science book that I have ever read. Stars, planets, earth, dinosaurs, molecules, cells are all so clearly explained. I discovered many fascinating things. For example, did you know that sun as viewed from Mercury sometimes undoes zig-zag movements? That's right. The sun as it inches across the sky moves forward, then back and then forward again. It is also wonderful to experience the birth of life of earth that occured 3.5 billion years ago. When I read the book, I can almost hear winged trumpets celebrating this event.

Excellent!

I am a big fan of this book. It is my "science bible." Each day I read a few pages. I am learning so much about nature, chemistry, living creatures, geology, dinosaurs, earth, planets, stars, physics, evolution, biology, cosmology, etc.. I feel much more knowledgeable than before I began reading this book. It has had a great impact on me, even changing the way I view many things. Everybody should have this type of knowledge. Unfortunately, most science courses in school do not provide it.

A very enjoyable book.

I especially liked the mini biographies of Newton, Einstein, Darwin, Moses, Muhammad and Buddha. The book of subnuclear physics on quarks, QCD and color forces was too difficult for me. The rest of the book was quite readable and fun.
