David Bodanis demystifies the world's most famous equation, explaining its science and bringing it to life. He makes clear the astonishing array of discoveries and consequences it made possible and its impact on our daily lives. At last, the masses can understand that Einstein did nothing less than open the door to the inner structure of the universe.

Great book. Wanted more science, less history.

Bodanis has surely succeeded in fulfilling the challenge presented in the book's opening chapter, teaching Cameron Diaz (and the reader) what E=MC2 really means.
As an avid science reader I am often lost to the words of science writers who fail to translate their concepts clearly or confuse the reader with their lack of metaphor and context. This book was a gem. While I agree with the assessment about the book focusing on A-Bomb development a little too much (frankly, this IS the outcome of the equation and to snub the massive slaughter with a quick reference would be unthinkable), I wasn't aware of any religion bashing....but then again I don't actively look for opportunities to defend the flying spagetti monster either.
Highly recommended!
