Out of My Later Years

In this book, Albert Einstein addresses issues that fascinate him as a scientist, philosopher and humanitarian. He divides the essays into sections—Science; Convictions and Beliefs; Public Affairs--and considers everything from the need for a governing body to control war in the atomic age to freedom in research and education to Jewish history and Zionism. Throughout, his clear, eloquent voice presents an idealist’s vision and explains complex theories to the layperson.
