My wife thinks I'm a bit strange for reading *and enjoying* biographies. I can't remember the last biography I read that I didn't enjoy. All my recent biography reads have been interesting, entertaining, and helpful in forming my views of life, history, etc. Does anyone else enjoy a good biography or am I a nut?
I have just started into Isaac Newton: The Last Sorcerer and have found it fascinating so far.
I'd like to read a biography on Einstein one of these days too. There have been so many produced in the past decade that I'm looking for some advice. Has anyone read one or more of the following titles, and if so, can you offer some suggestions or titles to stay away from? Einstein: The Life and Times, Einstein: A Life in Science, Albert Einstein: The Human Side, Einstein: A Life, or any others.
