Albert Einstein said that he did not like giving interviews, but, as a public figure, he could not avoid them. However, he never gave a detailed and orderly interview about his scientific career and the most interesting aspects of his private life. It is precisely this gap that Carlos Calle, a NASA research physicist and great admirer of Einstein, sought to fill, and as a result he was able to recreate a portrait of one of the greatest scientists in history as convincingly as if he had actually spoken to him. With a foreword by Sir Roger Penrose , winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics.* * *

“Do the answers given in my “interview” really reflect the essence of Einstein’s personality? For the most part, yes. I have based my opinions and views expressed in his articles, books for the general reader, press interviews and private letters to family and friends. In some cases I have used direct quotations from these sources: these are partly indicated in the Notes at the end of the book. Einstein's personal life is an important part of these imaginary conversations." (Carlos Calle)
