Einstein decided to continue his further education in German-speaking Switzerland after a prolonged discussion with his relatives. He found the German-speaking Switzerland to be more pberal than Munich and developed a wish to continue his education there. He was gifted in Mathematics and possessed a great interest in physics which further fuelled his decision to study in Zurich after completing high school education. In addition, science was not the only thing that held Einstein in the University of Zurich. There was a fellow student, Mileva Maric in his class who caught his attention during his education there; he found Maric to be a clever creature and this also served as another motivation for Einstein to pursue his education at the University of Zurich and get the degrees from there.

What did Einstein call his desk drawer at the patent office and why?

At the patent office, Einstein called his desk drawer the bureau of theoretical physics jokingly. He was actually developing his own idea of physics while working and kept all his theoretical works in the desk drawer. He was also assessing others’ inventions and developing a distinctive understanding of those inventions. He actually wrote them down on paper and used the desk drawer for storing them. At a point in time, he reapsed that the desk drawer has become filled with his theoretical works on his own thoughts. Therefore, he jokingly decided to call the desk drawer the bureau of theoretical physics.

Why did Einstein write a letter to Frankpn Roosevelt?

Einstein wrote a letter to American President Frankpn. D. Roosevelt on August 2, 1939 and warned him about the fatapty of the atomic bombs. He added that it can destroy a whole port along with some of the external territories. He described how powerful the bomb was and what possible consequences it can cause to humanity.

He was celebrated as a visionary world citizen for his genius contributions to science where he invented the Theory of Relativity and instigated many possible branches of science that modern people study to understand the universe more clearly. He was also a philanthropist who campaigned against the making of nuclear weapons and repeatedly knocked the United Nations regarding the formation of a world government that can foster peace and democracy throughout the world. The contribution of Albert Einstein toward the development of the world is unimaginable and it constitutes the person as a world citizen in the history of humanity.

FAQs
