It sounds like a light-hearted road trip. But as Michael Paterniti crosses
America with the aged Thomas Harvey, the pathologist who purloined Einstein鈥檚
brain over forty years ago, a sadder story emerges. Stored in cookie jars,
displayed on various kitchen tables, with shavings occasionally meted out as
souvenirs to fans, the great man鈥檚 brain has been turned into a sort of
religious relic and alter ego for Harvey. You鈥檒l find the sorry tale of
Einstein鈥檚 travels in the after-life in Driving Mr Albert: A trip across
America with Einstein鈥檚 brain is published by The Dial Press,
$18.95, ISBN 0316648582.
