Book Description
Be careful what you wish for. Isn’t that what they say? In my defence, what woman wouldn’t wish for a handsome, intense, and successful man? Aiden is all of these things and more. He is also a jerk of epic proportions. He is blunt, closed-off, and secretive. I know there’s more to him than just his good looks, but he refuses to open up. So why do I keep going back for more? Yes, our chemistry is off the charts, but physical attraction isn’t enough to sustain a real relationship. And that’s what I want—a real connection with the real Aiden. Too bad he just keeps on breaking my heart. Will I finally crack that tough armour Aiden wears like a cloak? Or will Aiden truly be my greatest mistake? **Please note that this is a book with a strong, arrogant, male character. If you are looking for a PG sweet romance book, then this book is not for you. If you want a raw, stripped down, gripping romance that can only come from having a bossy, domineering, unapologetic male character, then sit back and enjoy.**

Einstein's Greatest Mistake
Author: David Bodanis
Publisher: Hachette UK
ISBN: 1408708086
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 172
Book Description
Widely considered the greatest genius of all time, Albert Einstein revolutionised our understanding of the cosmos with his general theory of relativity and helped to lead us into the atomic age. Yet in the final decades of his life he was also ignored by most working scientists, his ideas opposed by even his closest friends. This stunning downfall can be traced to Einstein's earliest successes and to personal qualities that were at first his best assets. Einstein's imagination and self-confidence served him well as he sought to reveal the universe's structure, but when it came to newer revelations in the field of quantum mechanics, these same traits undermined his quest for the ultimate truth. David Bodanis traces the arc of Einstein's intellectual development across his professional and personal life, showing how Einstein's confidence in his own powers of intuition proved to be both his greatest strength and his ultimate undoing. He was a fallible genius. An intimate and enlightening biography of the celebrated physicist, Einstein's Greatest Mistake reveals how much we owe Einstein today - and how much more he might have achieved if not for his all-too-human flaws.
