The Greatest Mind of the Century: A Post Mortem


Who would not like to have a brain like that of Albert Einstein, after all it is his brain that produced all the confusing relativistic explanations and made him the greatest scientist of all time. I have tried to get into his brain and drag out some of the facts about his brain.  And here I present those facts:
·         Albert Einstein is one of the intellectual giants in the history. But medical reports say that Einstein suffered from childhood dyslexia and he himself has admitted that he started to talk comparatively later (not earlier that 3 years of age) and had problem remembering words.

·         Although he had these childhood problems, doctors say his brain was adept at the end of his life. (Read More)


·         The regions responsible for numerical and spatial processing were larger than that in a normal human brain.

·         Recent researches claim that Einstein’s brain was removed and preserver without his or any of his relatives’ permission.

·         His brain was dissected into 240 pieces during the course of the study of his brain.

·         The size of Einstein’s brain was similar to that of any normal human brain (1230 gm). The thing that was significantly different was the morphology of the Sylvian Fissure in the brain hemispheres.

·         Due to larger spatial processing regions, Einstein is believed to imagine such complex phenomenon of relativities easily. In the development of Special Theory of Relativity, he has said “….words do not seem to play any role but there are images of these things…..”, describing his way thinking.
