Reenacting Galileo's Experiments: Rediscovering the Techniques of Seventeenth-Century Science Book

"I do not know how the third world war will be fought, but I can tell you what they will use in the fourth - Rocks! " - Albert Einstein

This was my first Non-Fiction book rather the first Biography I read.
It's true that it's tough to read a non-fictitious book than a fiction book. Indeed it took me a lot of time to complete this masterwork. But ultimately it was worth the time.
One of the authors Alice Calaprice was a senior editor at Princeton University Press for 20 years. Where Einstein spends his last years in the USA. She was in charge of editing and production of collected papers of Albert Einstein. So the point is this book covers almost everything about him in a very minute detail.

I was certainly interested in phenomenon like Photoelectric Effect. LASER, Uncertainty Principle but this book took my interest to the new level. Even a layman in science will be able to understand almost 85% of the book. Of course, there will be a part where a scientific background is expected. The most intriguing thing I found was the religious view of Einstein, he always kept himself away from Religious Dogma. He was a proud of his Jewish Roots even after seeing what happened in Germany during Hitler's time. He held a deep faith in the laws and harmony of nature that he called "Cosmic Religion".

Here is my favorite quote, In 1926 in a letter to Physicist Max Born, he said
"Quantum Mechanics is very worthy of regard, but an inner voice tells me that this is not yet the right track. The theory yields much, but it hardly brings us closer to the old one's secrets. I, in any case, am convinced that He(God) doesn't play dice!

The physics he established in the early part of the 20th century has led to technological and scientific advances unprecedented in human history!
