First Edition of Philipp Frank's Einstein: His Life And Times

First edition of this classic work by Frank, a famed contemporary of Einstein. Octavo, original cloth, illustrated with black and white photographs. Translated from a German manuscript by George Rosen. Edited and Revised by Shuichi Kusaka. In very good condition.

Much has been written about Albert Einstein, technical and biographical, but very little remains as valuable as this unique hybrid of a book written by Einstein's colleague and contemporary. Both rich in personal insights and grounded in a deep knowledge of twentieth-century science, Phillip Frank's biography anchors the reader with a lucid overview of physics and draws an intimate portrait of the Nobel Prize–winner. Very good in a very good dust jacket, name to the front pastedown, side edges.
