Synopsis
From beloved New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Marie Benedict comes the story of a not-so-famous scientist who not only loved Albert Einstein, but also shaped the theories that brought him lasting renown. In the tradition of Beatriz Williams and Paula McClain, Marie Benedict's The Other Einstein offers us a window into a brilliant, fascinating woman whose light was lost in Einstein's enormous shadow. This novel resurrects Einstein's wife, a brilliant physicist in her own right, whose contribution to the special theory of relativity is hotly debated. Was she simply Einstein's sounding board, an assistant performing complex mathematical equations? Or did she contribute something more? Mitza Maric has always been a little different from other girls. Most twenty-year-olds are wives by now, not studying physics at an elite Zurich university with only male students trying to outdo her clever calculations. But Mitza is smart enough to know that, for her, math is an easier path than marriage. Then fellow student Albert Einstein takes an interest in her, and the world turns sideways. Theirs becomes a partnership of the mind and of the heart, but there might not be room for more than one genius in a marriage. Marie Benedict illuminates one pioneering woman in STEM, returning her to the forefront of history's most famous scientists. "The Other Einstein takes you into Mileva's heart, mind, and study as she tries to forge a place for herself in a scientific world dominated by men."--Bustle Recommended by PopSugar, Bustle, Booklist, Library Journal and more!

Theirs becomes a partnership of the mind and of the heart, but there might not be room for more than one genius in a marriage., A vivid and mesmerizing novel about the extraordinary woman who married and worked with one of the greatest scientists in history What secrets may have lurked in the shadows of Albert Einstein's fame? His first wife, Mileva "Mitza" Mari, was more than the devoted mother of their three children - she was also a brilliant physicist in her own right, and her contributions to the special theory of relativity have been hotly debated for more than a century. In 1896, the extraordinarily gifted Mileva is the only woman studying physics at an elite school in Zürich. There, she falls for charismatic fellow student Albert Einstein, who promises to treat her as an equal in both love and science. But as Albert's fame grows, so too does Mileva's worry that her light will be lost in her husband's shadow forever. A literary historical in the tradition of The Paris Wife and Mrs. Poe , The Other Einstein reveals a complicated partnership that is as fascinating as it is troubling. "...an engaging and thought provoking fictional telling of the poignant story of an overshadowed woman scientist." - review from Booklist, One of PopSugar's "25 Books You're Going to Curl Up with this Fall."

- h***b (8)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseWhat I ordered was in new condition and shipped super fast. Unfortunately, through no fault of the shop, it wasn’t what I meant to order. The shop would’ve had no idea because the book was sealed in plastic wrap, so I know it was an honest mistake. I reached out and they helped me get an immediate resolution to the issue. Although my purchase didn’t go perfectly, I have to say this shop is really kind and easy to work with! I’ll be happy to buy here in the future.
