Einstein in Oxford by Andrew Robinson

Einstein in Oxford by Andrew Robinson

An intimate and unfamiliar account of Albert Einstein's visit to Oxford in the 1930's, casting new light on why he continues to be the world's most famous scientist.

‘In Oxford the dons greeted Einstein with an esteem bordering on deification but were mostly bamboozled by relativityAndrew Robinson’s masterful treatment reveals that Oxford’s colourful idiosyncrasies made a strong impression on Einstein in contrast with his meagre view of the university’s physical scientists.’

-- Roger Davies, Emeritus Professor of Astrophysics at the University of Oxford, and Student of Christ Church College, Oxford

Andrew Robinson has written some twenty-five books, including two on Albert Einstein, as well as articles and reviews on Einstein for leading magazines and newspapers, and also Genius: A Very Short Introduction
