Einstein and mental snapshots

The name of A. Einstein is a universal metaphor for the genius and intelligence. Even those of us to be involved, mathematics and physics can be familiar with terms such as E = MC2, general and special relativity theory, and his Nobel Prize for Physics in 1921 on the photoelectric effect.

His work from 1905 is still regarded as a miracle in superstring theory of specialists, and there are scientist who is his Unified Field Theory believe it. He has not worked on the atomic bomb, but warned President Roosevelt that the Nazis were committed before World War such a bomb to win second

Al cashed his chips in 1955 at the age of 76 and wanted to be a brain researcher

Einstein’s brain in his scientific genius has illustrated.

Lost And Found

For the next twenty years, Einstein’s brain has been lost in space. Steven Levy treated;
Reporter for the New Jersey Monthly in 1975, he began to hunt.
Turned out it was owned by Dr. Thomas Harvey, the pathologist,

back to Princeton, N.J. for Levy.

One of Einstein’s brain tissue were samples sent to the McMaster University in Ontario, Canada, Dr. Sandra F. Witelson and his team. In 1999 she sent the results of its review to the Lancet (British Medical Journal) for publication.

Einstein’s brain showed a width of 15% more compared to other normal cortex. More specifically, Brodmann area 39 is to analyze the place of mathematical thinking and the ability, with respect to space and movement, it was significantly higher in the brain of Einstein. » Read more: Einstein’s Mental Snapshots Rule
