Abstract
The purpose of this book is to acquaint the reader with Einstein’s social ideas, with his emotional life, with his convictions concerning the objectives man should strive for. And he surely abided by the ideals he put forward in his letters as well as any person could. The book is almost completely restricted to these aspects and contains hardly any information about Einstein’s scientific accomplishments. It deals with what the authors call the human side.
