Einstein

Albert EINSTEIN is one of the most famous scientists in history, and his story begins in a surprising place — not a prestigious university, but a small town in Germany. He was born on March 14, 1879, in Ulm, a city in the kingdom of Württemberg. As a child, Einstein was quiet and curious, spending hours lost in thought about puzzles and ideas that most kids his age never considered. He struggled in school not because he lacked intelligence, but because he found rigid, memorization-based teaching deeply frustrating. His family was Jewish and middle-class, and his father Hermann ran an electrical engineering business that sparked young Albert's early fascination with PHYSICS and invisible forces like electricity and MAGNETISM. From the very start, Einstein was someone who needed to understand the world on his own terms — and that independent spirit would define his entire life.
