Einstein: A Biography by Jürgen Neffe

This biography presents his life by subject first and chronology second which means it is sometimes confusing as to what happened when. I particularly appreciated the several chapters that attempted to follow his thought processes. The book also does not sugar coat his difficulties in dealing with women and those close to him.
