Albert Einstein's little-known spiritual side

Book cover for "I Am a Part of Infinity" by Kieran Fox
Publisher: Basic Books

In his book, "I Am a Part of Infinity," neuroscientist and doctor Kieran Fox offers the first in-depth exploration of Einstein’s spirituality, showing how he drew on a dazzling diversity of thinkers—from Pythagoras to Plato, Schopenhauer to Spinoza, the Upanishads to Mahatma Gandhi—to create a novel system where mysticism met mathematics, reality was revered and the human mind was honored as a mirror of the infinite. This wasn’t just a new way of seeing the world. Einstein asked us to commune with the cosmos, to treat every living creature with compassion, to channel the power that permeated all things and put it to use for pure purposes.
