Innovation: The Einstein Way

by Virender Kapoor

One of the most admired figures from the last century, Albert Einstein's contributions to science, particularly theoretical physics, are unparalleled. How did Einstein's achievements translate into our daily lives? And what was he like as a person? In this book, Virender Kapoor analyses every facet of Einstein's life and personality. He shows how Einstein's contributions went far beyond the field of science-he was an active supporter of human rights, a generous donor and remarkably detached from material possessions. Einstein also knew how to use his imagination productively, employ communication skills effectively and above all, keep his sense of humour intact. It was these qualities and others that made him the man he was, and understanding and absorbing them would also help others go a long way as well, in any time and at any place. Containing powerful truths in simple, lucid words, the Einstein Way is a must-read for everyone, irrespective of their fields of interest, to understand how to utilize their strengths to the fullest.

Reviews

[Prakhya Nair · Rating 1 out of 5]

Very few Indian authors can write on an international calibre.

He is not one of them.

Also, there's self-help, and then there's whatever the hell this is.

It is so disgustingly OBVIOUS that this book is written by an Indian, it's not even funny.

I just... hate it. So much. Please take it away from me.

And give me my money back.

[Sukhamaya Swain]

This gives quiet many insights into the normal human side of Einstein.
Typically any book revolving around this person is skewed towards the scientific temperament of the individual and sidelines any other aspect. In sharp contrast to these, this piece of writing does not involve any complicated scientific analysis but treats the person as a normal human being outlaying many aspects hitherto unknown.
Simplicity in writing and choice of examples to elaborate a point makes it lovable to read. Whats more it is simple, short and sweetly written.
