Stellar’s Reviews > Einstein: His Life and Universe > Status Update

As I always suspected, Einstein was a philosopher above all. His Olympia academy, and applying June's concepts to physics, are philosophy of science mroeso than physics.

I love how Isaacson obviously did his research into the countless letters between Einstein and those around him, and how Isaacson remains impartial—it doesn't feel like I'm reading Isaacson's particular take on Einstein's life, but an incissive storyline.

As for Einstein's life so far, he is surprisingly low in the big five trait conscientiousness but also sky-high in openness.
